Olivia came down with the croup on Thursday. What is the croup you ask...Well, if you are over 50, I have found you know what it is, but for those of you that are not:
Croup is a swelling of the voice box (larynx) and windpipe (trachea). Because croup swells the throat and voice box, it alters the sound of your child's cough (and voice). If your child has a very hoarse, deep cough that sounds like a barking seal, it's probably croup.
The barking seal bit is right on. Poor thing...that is exactly what she sounded like. Anyways, our Valentine's Day plans were altered...these types of things are what spearate us from childless couples that is for sure. Olivia missed her Valentine's Party at school as we stayed home Friday. Brooke spent Friday night with Gramma and Grandpa, and we had pizza with Gramma Shari and the Pages' on Saturday. Killer Valentines Day, huh?! Oh well, at least Olivia feels better...finally...today!
Hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day. I can't think of any other way I wanted to spend mine.
