Since Danny has had more than his fair share of nose bleeds, he recognizes the running sensation in his nose. Thinking it is an emergency, he will run to an adult while holding his nose. "Bleeding!!" he will say and want you to fix it. While wiping his nose gives temporary releif, a cold continues to run. While I can stop a bleeding nose with some pressure and a few kicks to his feet, a cold doesn't respond to that kind of treatment. Last night was hard cause he kept feeling wet stuff in his nose, and it kept waking him up. Funny, most children would wake up with coughing, but not my son. Coughing doesn't faze him. That drippy feeling in his nose is what puts him over the edge.
Scott has had really bad sore throat and achy body for the last couple of days. He finally went in to work today, and I am hoping that it doesn't make him worse. At least he will have tomorrow off to try and recover some more.
My issues? Just that I am dreadfully tired, with a splash of a sore throat. I think it is mostly due to lack of sleep due to constant interruption by toddler, baby, and husband. Thankfully, I manage to squeeze in a nap during the day, thanks to my inlaws.

It sounds like our house. Only now we are all on the downhill of the cold, finally.
Hey, good luck with the sicknesses- I hope you don't have what I do!!! I hear rest helps. It's a good thing your in-laws live with you, are they feeling ok?
