Sick Little One

Well, early this morning (3am), Cam woke up with a pretty good little fever and a bigger cough. Poor baby. Dave ended up sleeping in Cam's bed and Cam was with me. Poor baby-felt so warm all night. I was hoping he was not getting sick but when he woke up Sunday with the seal bark cough, I had a bad feeling. He was doing fine almost all day but not now. He is just chillin' right now and I am forcing him to drink a ton of water. We tell him the more he drinks, the more he will pee out the germs and that is actually working.The kids are actually pretty good about drinking water. I only let them have a cup of juice or milk once at dinner and the rest of the time they always have a water cup. I just see all of these kids that drink anything but water and end up being overweight. I cannot imagine being an overweight child. Why have them drink all of those empty calories. I would rather have them be able to have a small treat in their lunch.They love little surprises in their lunch-whether it be a hershey kiss or a mini cookie)Its all good. Enough of my ramblings, off to read a story to sickie.
