Golden Gator & Farm Flu

This week has been eventful, to the say the least. First, I must brag on my son. He was honored with the "Golden Gator award" at his first Awards Assembly this past Thursday. They give this award for being the sweetest, coolest, bestest kid in the class (well, that's not exactly the description....but that pretty much sums it up! :)
We were soooo proud of him! And he was pretty proud of himself too...but I think he would've been more excited had there been a new toy or ice cream involved! :)





However, just a day after he received his award, Caleb came down with the H1N1 flu. And by the way, I hate calling it swine flu....that's just not very attractive. So, that's why I'm either calling it H1N1 or the Farm Flu. Caleb's been a champ, and hasn't felt too bad except for the fever and an annoying cough. But this morning, Ellie woke up with a fever of 101.5. So, here we go again. I have a feeling Adelyn is not too far behind, because she's not acting like herself either! :( Please pray for healing for our little ones, and strength and stamina for the nurses here at the Skow Clinic. I'm feeling a little ragged already with just one patient, much less three. And I think we are all getting a bad case of cabin fever!

Here are some cute pictures of Ellie Faith, before the epidemic hit....


Doesn't she look like a snake charmer....I thought the panties with the rubber boots was a good look! :)


And this is her playing in the rain....no, mommy was not at home during these activities...


But it sure looks like she had a lot of fun!!
