“Good God Y’all -- I Feel Bad!”

I came back from a weekend visit at my parents house and on the drive home, I started coughing, and felt achy all over. On Monday, Mason woke up to the same symptoms. When his fever hit 102º this morning, we took him to his pediatrician.

The cause? Would you believe the flu? The funny parts were:
1. ‣ Nobody at my parents’ house was sick that day.
2. ‣ I had a flu shot this winter.

Now I’m drinking a “Double Big Gulp” of cranberry juice (what? big guy, big thirst!) and keeping the tissue box nearby at all times.

As of now, Sonia has proven immune to all of this. Lucky gal.
