My Ebenezer

Speedy had a runny nose last night and didn't sleep much at all. I couldn't get him to sleep for his nap today and his nose kept getting worse. This evening, he ran fever. Our first sickness. Poor baby, he felt so bad he just cried while Daddy rocked him – cried and cried and cried. We gave him medicine for the fever and the runny nose and tomorrow he'll go to the doctor. I know he has a history of ear infections, so I'm wondering if that's what is at the root of this.

He's asleep now, but I have a feeling it's going to be a long night.
