Monday night around 2:00 a.m. (or Tuesday morning, I guess) Jack woke up crying and saying that his ear was hurting. I gave him some Tylenol and had him put his ear on a warm washcloth. That seemed to help for a short time, but he could not manage to get back to sleep until 6:00 a.m. It was a long night! We watched Mr. Magorium's Wonder Imporium. I thought he would fall asleep while watching the movie and it would take his mind off of the pain. No such thing! After that, he tried to go back to sleep in his bed with no luck. Jack played on the computer for a little while until he finally got tired enough that he could go back to sleep. I took him to the doctor Tuesday morning and he had an ear infection. SO, he is on an antibiotic and an oral steroid for his asthma. He has been invited to a birthday party at the pool this Saturday. Hopefully his ear will be better and he will be able to get in the pool.

Poor Jack I am so sorry. It is no fun to be sick on your spring Break. Get Better! :)
I know how it is! Isaiah had a double ear infection on the 18th and then he seemed to get better. I can always tell because he doesn't sleep well if his ears are hurting! I took him back on Tuesday for a recheck and his left ear was still infected! He didn't sleep Monday night either! He is now on his second round of antibiotics. I heard Chris on the radio asking for prayers for you because of a rough night! I hope he feels better soon!
What a bummer to be sick on Spring Break! Glad you got to enjoy the pool though, Jack! Get better soon!
