midnight crisis

Connor has a fever now, to accompany his cough. I'll be taking him to the dr. first thing in the morning. He's been up and down all night, which is why I am wide awake at such an early hour. Hopefully I'll be able to find someone to babysit the other boys so I don't have to take all three of them with me to the clinic.

I haven't been to it yet, but our dr.'s office is the SOS Clinic. It is a "western" clinic, with dr.s from Europe. I've been told everyone there speaks English. We were suppose to register there last month, but it never happened with everything that had to be done before the students arrived. Sailing has to go with us to pay the registration fees, which are in the thousands of yuan. I'll call her in the morning and hopefully she can accompany me so I don't have to pay the registration fee myself. Of course, we'd be reimbursed but still that's a lot of money for us to hand over out of pocket.

I just tried to get Connor to take some Tylenol but he refuses. When I said "Just taste it. It taste good." He said "No, you taste it!" It's so cute to hear him speaking in full sentances now. Petey has a cough too and earlier tonight when I asked him if he'd like some cough medicine he said "No, I'll just pray instead." My kids are so anti-medicine. But at least they have faith :)

How are they doing today?

This morning I got this rush in my heart, I know it's a weird thing but I don't know how else to say it, that I needed to pray for you and the boys, for your safety, for your health. It was such a clear signal that I needed to pray. I can't quite explain it but I felt gripped by the heart that I needed to pray NOW. That was about 6 a.m.
