Spring fever? More like spring flu!

In the words of Dr Meo to Brynn last Wednesday "You haven't been here all winter, and now you the spring flu & an ear infection & crazy eyes???"

That sums up the last 2 weeks around here:

I started it: went to bed on a Tuesday afternoon and slept for 30 of the next 36 hrs. My body ached. I was sweating and shivering. The light from my phone's screen was too bright.

Iann spiked a fever on Friday afternoon; it was up to 104 by early Sunday morning. I was sort of paralyzed - another son with 104 temp on a Sunday morning, and it was too early to call anyone. There was NO WAY I was taking him into the ER, way too deja vu, so I called my sister in England who talked me into a calmer state.

Iann stayed home from preschool on Monday, and Brynn had a fever when I picked him up from school that day. Iann went to school Tuesday but was worn out when he got home. Both boys were on the couch on Wednesday, Iann back to school Thurs, and both on Friday.

The child who can't sit still was lying around and super cuddly all week

Brynn's flu took hold of his eyes: the left first, then the right. 
I am happy to report that they are both doing great now. Just went down to see what they were doing. This sums it up:
