M.I.A.

I've never gone this long without an entry!!! It has been a crazy week. School has been insane...children everywhere have lost their minds. Brent's car died, which turned our entire Tuesday on its ear. We left the house together in one vehicle at 8:15 and came home all together in one vehicle at 5:30. Not our average day. My friend Julie is in town from Tulsa and we had a girls night last night. I left at 11:30, which is about 2 hours past my usual bedtime, the old lady that I am. I paid for it this morning, but it was so nice to see Julie that it was worth it. I picked Tyler up from school and the kids and I met Brent at the Bolton/Bartlett soccer game. Em and I skipped out early and now we are watching Strawberry Shortcake until the boys get home.

It is time for my blog to address Tyler's forehead. People are beginning to ask questions. 6 weeks ago, he developed a tiny bump on his forehead that looked like "poison idy," as he says. Over the next 3 weeks, it grew to about a dime size boil-looking thing. We treated it with hydrocortizone and anti-fungal stuff. When I took Emily to the Dr. with Strep, I had her look at Tyler's head. She had no idea what it was. She gave us some Elidel and told me to use it for 2 weeks. It has now grown to quarter-size and it getting darker and kind of crusty. I have another prescription to start tonight. Please pray that it works. I don't know what we'll do if it doesn't.
