Pneumonia

R was diagnosed with pneumonia today. It's not so bad that she needs hospitalization, but we're doing house arrest and quaranteening her to her room for a couple of days until her fever breaks. Her fevers have been ranging from 102-105 over the past four days. We went to ER on Tuesday evening, but they misdiagnosed her with just a bronchial infection. I'm actually glad the fever persisted so that we were prompted to return to the doctor and thus we received an accurate diagnosis.
Please pray for all of us. Being in your room all day can drive a little one crazy, not mention her mom. :-) I have some games and projects in mind to keep her occupied part of the time. Please pray for J as he takes care of the boys and other tasks I'm not able to handle over the weekend. Also, please pray that the rest of us won't get the pneumonia also. We've been exposed to it, so now we're relying on our immune systems to fight it off. We've all been sick over the past several months, so the Lord is truly the only one who can keep us from all getting this illness.
Thanks for your prayers.

poor sweet girl! Give her our love and we'll be praying for her to heal quickly! We love and miss you all! Any trips to Dallas planned anytime soon?? Just a thought! Did you hear about the Children's Desiring God conference coming to Dallas next month? They decided to do a one day conference on their off year and I guess Dallas was the city they chose. Are you interested in coming? It will rock your world, let me tell you!!!

Please let me know if you're interested.
