Tonsilitus

Well its typical - Dunca goes away for two nights - so something happens! Lucy is ill. She was poorly Monday .. it was meant to have been her first playschool day - but by 11.30 she was asleep on the settee ... she was very hot and bothered when she woke up and so at bedtime we gave her some medicine - which prompted her to puke lasagne up all over our bed! The poor little thing was awake all through the night, feeling hot and ill and needing drinks. Poor Duncan and I couldnt sleep under our stinky sick duvet so i had lucys spare one over me and Duncan had to make do with a few fleece blankets!
Yesterday she perked up after some medicine but was soon ridiculously hot, red and rashy - she kept falling asleep and was completely lethargic so I ran her up the doctors to have tonsilitus diagnosed! Its viral so all we can do is keep her medicated to keep her temp down and keep an eye on her tonsils to make sure they dont get worse. She is a lot better today, thank goodness, and i hope the tonsils will go down soon.

Aside from that, Amelia brilliantly asked Dad why his trousers are pulled up so high!! love it! And just before Easter she was in Golden Book at school, for enthusiast writing about her senses. So very very proud.
