strep

Our week just got a lot more exciting. We were hanging out after school doing homework when Gwyneth started screaming. Out of no where. She said her neck and throat hurt and she wouldn’t stop crying and screaming. It was truly crazy! Just minutes before she was all smiles and then hysterics! 
I admit, she freaked me out. I called the doctor and they got us in quite quickly. She tested positive for strep throat. She also had really tense neck muscles because she clenched her muscles anytime she had to swallow. 
I’ve never seen her so sick or in so much pain. I felt terrible for this little lady. She was still all smiles at doctor. Such a sweet girl. 
While Gwyneth rested Annabelle and I got caught up on several last minute projects for school and girl scouts. I was suppose to help in Annabelle’s classroom tomorrow but I’ll be at home with Miss Gwyneth. We packaged red and white beads and pipe cleaners to make “candy canes” and Annabelle is going to lead her class in the craft. 
Annabelle also made several Christmas cards for her Daisy troop. She has to miss the meeting tomorrow night, but she still wanted to be part of the craft. 
And while we crafted and sorted away, here’s our little Gwyneth. All snuggled up with her monkeys sound asleep. This didn’t last long, she was up most of the night, but she looked so peaceful while it lasted.
