the corner??

It might be wishful thinking, but i'm hopeful that Grace is finally turning the corner. It's been a long weekend for our poor little girl. I'm not sure she's been without a fever for even a moment in the last 3 days. Yesterday it was pretty high for a few hours and the rest of the weekend it's been about 100. I'm starting to worry that the antibiotics she's taking aren't strong enough to combat the germs that have a hold of her. BUT today she smiled and even laughed a few times, it was good to see.

Tonight we decided to venture to Ries' for dinner, it was probably a selfish decision on my part. I hope we don't pay for taking her out, I just wanted to get out of the house, see some friends and do something that we would normally enjoy as a family. We had a good time and Grace enjoyed watching the big kids play. She didn't try to be in the mix, like she usually is, but she smiled while they danced and stayed awake for longer then she has in several days.

Dick and Betti were home for the weekend, it was nice to have them here, Maggie especially appreciated it. Grace has been getting a lot of attention and we've been pretty homebound, so it was fun for Maggie to get to hang with Grandma and Pops, by herself, for awhile yesterday.

Hopefully with the start of the new week things will be more normal around here. If not, we'll head back to the doctor tomorrow. Thanks for checking in on us and for all the thoughts and prayers.
