Last night we arrived at the acreage to drop the kids off for a whole week of fun at Gramma and Grampa's. Joseph ended up being awake all night with an ear-ache and sore throat and I took him to the doctors early this morning to see what was up. After a throat swab and a chest x-ray it was diagnosed as a viral illness to be treated symptomatically with tylonel if needed. He was in much better spirits by the late morning, and I didn't feel as guilty about leaving him. I knew he was in capable hands and would be on the mend shortly.
We gave hugs and kisses and jumped in the van for a whole week without the children. It rained the entire time we drove through the mountains. Mike and I both had the sniffles and plugged ears. We practically had to yell to hear each other and when we talked we sounded like we were talking with our noses plugged. It was not an ideal way to start a vacation, but we pressed on and made it to Kamloops for the night with lots of cough drops and water.
We enjoyed a late, quiet dinner at Moxies and an early bed time!
