Scarlet Fever

Seriously? Scarlet Fever?  You have got to be kidding me. Hadara woke up on Thursday morning with Scarlet Fever. Does that even still exist?  She had swollen hands and ankles with a crazy rash and a flaming sore throat.  We took her to the doctor, got her on penicillin, and *voila* no more scarlet fever.  I am, yet again, blown away by the magic of modern medicine.

And with that said, someone in our family has been sick/injured for the past 8 weeks straight. We've done double ear infection, random virus, oral herpes, smashed lip after flying off of seesaw, smashed forehead with pretty shiner after some unexplained sandbox accident, bronchitis, sinus infection, croup, a few colds, and our crowning glory - scarlet fever.

I officially declare that the Seeman Family has fulfilled our quota for the year. We're done.  Or else I quit.
