Fever-no Bible Hour, no party
Yesterday, early evening, Savannah complained of being cold. She's still running a fever today, going up and down. One armpit reading was 103.5. We're giving her medicine, did the tepid bath, gave her cool water and a popsicle.
Around dinner tonight, she became more demanding and fussy. Daddy and I thought she must be getting better. A friend of mine who works with sick babies says it's time to send them home to their parents when they get grouchy.
Savannah's been handling it well. She's been pretty passive from feeling bad. She's not whiny about it. I hope to find her fever gone tomorrow morning.
I told her about her best friend's birthday party right before I discovered the fever. Fortunately, she hasn't remembered it yet. I told the girl's mother that we'd have them over Thursday for some Carvel cake and presents.
She may have forgotten about the party, but she didn't forget about this being Sunday. Her 12 year old friend, Anna, was helping in Bible hour, and Savannah looked forward to Anna's teaching her this morning. Someone also made Anna a birthday cake to be eaten today. I called Anna's mom so they could save Savannah a piece, but even Marianne didn't get one.
