After two nights of coughing and interrupted sleep (for all of us), a slight fever, and a terrific crabby spell that would not go away, we decided to take Eliza to the doctor yesterday. Once again, a little cold had gotten angry, this time turning into a slight ear infection and some upper respiratory junk […]

Day in the Park
IMG_5466.JPG Originally uploaded by griffey Today my Dad came down to visit his Grandkids, and we decided that the weather was so nice we’d picnic in Coolidge Park.
