Well it seems Olivia has turned the corner - PTL! She had a good sleep last night and a good two hour nap today. She hasn't had a fever since yesterday. She is still congested and not quite her cheerful self. But, the worst has passed. She even told me that her throat doesn't hurt today.
The boys spent the afternoon practicing soccer shots on each other outside while Olivia was sleeping. I decided to take the opportunity to sweep and mop the living room. Part of it was cleaned this morning with a spilled bowl of cereal.
I had a good long cry yesterday. I couldn't put a finger on any one thing, just lots of little things. Sometimes a woman just needs a good cry - I feel better today, even with puffy eyes. I admit, I somethings think that I can handle everything. Even when my body starts reacting to the stress I think I am fine. Anyway, it was a good release and things seem brighter today.
Thank you for all your prayers for Olivia. We need you and are thankful for your walking with us.
Sandy for all of us.
