Last week was so much fun but so hard too!&#160; The night of Noelle\u2019s birthday, she complained of an upset tummy after dinner.&#160; She NEVER ever complains of being sick and is always a good sport about going to school, so I knew something was up.&#160; I made her start the day after her birthday at school and promised her I would get a doctor\u2019s appointment scheduled in the meantime and pick her up before lunch.&#160; Sure enough, Tuesday afternoon, she tested positive for strep.&#160; That threw me for a huge loop because she only complained of a tummy ache.&#160; Then, I got tested positive for strep at the doctor on Wednesday, after a night of the sorest throat ever.&#160; The littles both had to go to the doctor for different reasons after that, and Rose is on antibiotics too.&#160; We were at the doctor 4\/5 days last week, and it was Noelle\u2019s birthday week!&#160; <img class=\"wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-sadsmile\" style=\"border-top-style: none; border-bottom-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-left-style: none\" alt=\"Sad smile\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pondfam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/wlEmoticon-sadsmile.png\" \/>&#160; I am just so thankful we have good doctors and access to them.&#160; All the kids are happy and healthy this week, but last week was plain awful.&#160; Taking care of them with strep (having it as an adult, I hear, hits us worse than kids for some reason) was pretty rough, but it\u2019s my greatest honor to put them first and never let them down.&#160; <\/p>\n<p>Noelle and I text all the time, especially days when I\u2019m down with fibro.&#160; It has greatly improved her grammar, punctuation, spelling, and we get to be silly with Emojis.&#160; Here\u2019s a little peak into a text the morning after her birthday.&#160; The picture on the left is from when she got home from school last Monday on her birthday.&#160; She 100% picks out all of her outfits for school (new this year) and has done such a great job!&#160; She\u2019s so creative and always looks so cute!&#160; She puts things together I wouldn\u2019t think of in a million years.&#160; I admire her fashion skills!&#160; <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pondfam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/1-IMG_3185.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"1-IMG_3185\" style=\"border-top: 0px;
