Okay so all day I have been preparing for dinner tonight with friends and a play date with two friends at our house tomorrow. The kids have asked all day how much longer until their friends come over. I specifically baked a homemade pound cake for strawberry shortcake because it is our friend's favorite dessert! I also made homemade chicken salad for tomorrow's play date and my house is spotless. Glorious day!
I noticed Josiah did not eat breakfast and was not hungry at lunch but figured he was just being a busy boy. About thirty minutes ago, he begins to say his brain hurts (something he says when he has a headache). After he says it several times I decided to go feel of his head and sure enough! HE'S BURNING UP! He's not a very dramatic kid so if he says he does not feel good, he really doesn't.
So I called my friend Lori to let her know about the fever and canceled tomorrow's play date. Ava Beth keeps saying, "Josiah can just stay inside and I will swim with our friends." If I were a parent, I would keep my kids away but I'm waiting to talk to Jeremy about sending Josiah up stairs and seeing if our friends will still come tonight.
It's official. I'm totally bummed out.

So sorry. I bet Josiah will be upset as well. I hope that your friends will be able to come anyway and if not you can send some strawberry shortcake my way =) I will stop and say a prayer right now that somehow you will be lifted in spirits IMMEDIATELY.
Oh, what a bummer! It seems like someone always gets sick when there is something extra fun planned. Poor little guy, I hope he feels better soon.
I am so sorry!! I sure hope he feels better soon! Is there a bug going around?
thanks for visiting me .. how is Josiah? Play date today? I prayed for the little guy and for sissy if it has to be rescheduled .. I hope she will understand and be okay with that =0) I know its hard to understand those BIG things at that age... do you have a new blog ?? Memories of us? Did I miss something?
Both of my little ones got this morning and said that they didn't feel good. DD1 started dry heaves and then about an hour later they were fine. Weird? Hope all is better there.
