Bring on summer!! PLEASE!

We have been so blessed this year to not have very much sickness in our family. And then May came! The first week of May, Sister had fever for 4 days (mostly 102) with no other symptoms. We took her to the dr. and she had pneumonia...first time ever! She missed almost a full week of school. She went back to school on a Friday and that same Friday night Brother started running fever. He ran fever for the entire weekend, also mostly 102, with no other symptoms. Took him to the dr. the following week and HE had pneumonia! Apparently there was an epidemic of pneumonia at their school..not something I've ever heard of. So Brother missed a week of school, too. The third week of May we were finally all back to normal and had one regular school and work week. We left town for Memorial Day weekend and came back on Memorial Day. That night, Pa came down with a fever. He had fever for 4 days between 101 and 102. When he finally broke down and went to the dr....you guessed it...pneumonia! Unbelievable! He got better on Friday, went back to work and Brother had 101 fever that same night. Took him to the Saturday clinic and he just had a fever virus and congestion. He was better by Saturday but then Saturday afternoon Sister started running fever...101.5. Are you kidding me? So here I sit at home on another Sunday, missing church and praying for summer to quickly get here so we can hopefully be done with all of the sickness and get onto playing! Sister is still running fever today and Field Day is at school tomorrow. Please pray that everyone will be well by then and that I will still have my sanity!!! :)
