"I 'ave the fwu!" -Kira, 2 years old

Poor little thing! After spending 8 hours in the emergency room (she fell on her head and was pretty much out of it for 1 hour after that - she's fine now!), Kira has a cold. The outside doors open directly onto the emergency room, so we were pretty much in the cold the whole time. All this happened Saturday night, so Sunday she woke up with a cold. She spent most of the day at my brother's place, like we had planned. But at around 8pm, he called me up and said "you know what, she's feverish and feeling really lousy. Perhaps she'd like to be in her things." We picked her up and she was fine after that. But night-time is always bad when kids have a cold, and she hardly slept. You could tell her sinuses were bothering her, she probably had a headache too. At some point she said "I 'ave the fwu!" Okay, it's not the flu, just a simple cold, but she knows about the flu from Caillou episodes. Even in the middle of the night, she manages to make us smile. She's still feeling lousy this morning/afternoon. Sean hasn't caught her cold yet, I'm still hoping against hope that he wont. But chances are that he will. Sigh...
