Raina gets sick

Eric jokingly noted while at the City Museum that Raina was destined to get sick since she was chewing on her shirt sleeve all day, there was no telling what kind of icky diseases she was ingesting. Sure enough monday night Raina had a fever of 104.5. That night she woke up in the middle of the night and called out to a parent. Hugs were provided and she was tucked back in. But 20 minutes later Raina started having a coughing fit. Finally her dad got up and fetched her a cup of water. When he went to pick up Raina she was shivering and was barely able to mutter the word "jacket". We bundled her up and cuddled with her for 20 minutes or so before she finally stopped shivering. Poor girl. She had probably been shivering during her coughing fit as well but she is a good girl and didn't complain. So she stayed home with her mommy on tuesday and slept on top of her mommy for the first time in many months. On wednesday dad stayed home and built her a pillow fort which has been a common activity as of late.
