A Change in our Easter Plans...

Our Easter plans have changed dramatically. Right after decorating eggs on Saturday, Josie started acting strange. She's been cutting molars and I assumed her less than kind behavior was due to a sore mouth. She refused to nap (which is rare) and by the evening she had thrown up, had a bloody nose, was running a 104 temperature and was coughing. We talked to the on-call doctor who told us to keep her medicated with tylenol and motrin every four hours. Mommy laid on the floor of the girls room and finally at 2am, her fever broke. Josie is now quite congested and has a noticeable cough. Doesn't it just figure this would happen at the end of spring break when the Mommy and Daddy are suppose to return to work!!!

The Easter bunny did manage to leave a trail of mini marshmallows to the girls Easter baskets. Despite not feeling well, Josie has been more than eager to keep up with big sister and tear into candy and other goodies.



Chris and Emma attended Easter mass, while Josie stayed home and got yet ANOTHER bath. Doesn't Emma look lovely in her Easter dress and coat?





Our annual Easter egg hunt at my parents funeral home has been put on hold for the girls. Have fun tearing it up Liam & Carson!! This hasn't been our ideal way to spend Easter, but we're home and together .


I've dug out my fine China and I'll be quickly putting together our own mini Easter dinner.

I hope your Easter is blessed and spirit filled.

    This will be an Easter that will always stick in your mind. Luckily, Josie has a great Mommy who will make sacrifices on her behalf without complaint! I hope she feels better real soon.
