Croupy Croup

So now Reni and Ani have croup. And have for several days. We are still quarantined in the house, surrounded by a couching chorus, saved only by Sesame Street in HD (did you know Amazon streams video to your Blue Ray? Me neither! So much nicer than a laptop or phone!), children's Benadryl, nasal aspirators, the constant hum of humidifiers and lots and lots of coffee for mom.

I would complain but I've been doing that for so long that I'm even bored of it.

And the doctor told me that it's perfectly normal for kids to get sick anywhere between 8 and 10 times a year. So counting recovery time, you can pretty much count on your kids being constantly sick. Love it. Thanks, biology. I'm trying to picture those immune systems getting stronger, but it's not really lightening the mood.

Bah humbug.
