Tuesday: sick

Ben's gone, so it seems appropriate that Joshua got sick.  I feel like Nathan and I always did that to Mom when Dad left.

Anyway, he woke up a bit early with a cough that wasn't doing anything but wouldn't go away.  As in, coughing every minute.  By the time we got to the doctor the cough wasn't as bad, but his breathing was labored.  And he was a lump.  You know kids are sick when they don't move.

He had a chest x-ray but it wasn't pneumonia.  We got some medicine.  After the nebulizer he had a good half hour that he played with the train track, but after than it was back to not feeling great again.

When he was talking to Ben today he said, "my breathing was labored" in his little four-year-old voice.  It was super cute.

Needless to say, we had a lot of screen time today.
