why did feb 15th have to arrive

valentines was sweet.

we had a special dinner and movie with the family...
spaghetti and lady and the tramp.

but the early morning hours of feb 15th were anything but sweet.

our youngest daughter woke us up around 2am to let us know she wet her bed.

after sheets were changed, her asthma was acting up so we stayed up and performed several "circus acts" in efforts stop her coughing fits and it goes something like this:

raise pillows, use inhaler, sit with her in the bathroom while the hot shower runs, rock and sing with her, sips of water, many prayers while stroking her hair...

finally, she seemed to be settled a bit around 3ish.

then...at 4 she came in to announce that she threw-up.

after that there was no more laying our heads down.

next year i might serve clear broth for valentines ;)
