Oh my god, what a couple of weeks. I'm so sorry. Glad they're all starting to feel better.
I wish, today Kirstin was struck done with the worst of it. When I got home from work she was lying on the couch, face bright red, burning with fever, eyes droopy, nose running, eyes watering. She was a sight. Gave her tylenol right away. Don't want a recurrence of what happened in October. :P
