And it's all over his body...head to toe. Ugh. So I call Grandma (and wake her up) to ask if she can come over while I run to school to beg for a sub again. I called the pediatrician and she definitely thought he needed to be seen. Trouble is....winter storm of the decade has hit with horrible road conditions.
(and yes, when she got him out of bed, he had to have these rain boots!)
So, I got him in to a family doctor here. After ruling out measles, strep throat, and chicken pox, he finally decided it could be roseola. He said it could be caused by a number of things. He took him off of one of the medicines he got last week, put him on different medicine and gave us some cream. We came home and took an oatmeal bath (which is very messy if you do the homemade kind...just sayin'), ate some grilled cheese sandwich and took a good nap. Yes, since he's been this sick, he gets whatever he dang well pleases...including watching Mickey Mouse in Daddy's chair while eating lunch! :)

This afternoon was spent reading books, playing a little and eating some snow!!
but much better with strawberries and blueberries in it! :)
Daddy finally got home and built us a warm fire!
So, needless to say, but we sure would appreciate some prayers for healing for this little guy.

Aww...no fun, but he's still cute as a button with red spots. Sure hope he gets better soon.
Father, thank You for sweet Michael, the apple of his mama and daddy's eye. Thank you that he is generally a healthy, happy little boy who brings joy wherever he goes. Now, Lord, we ask you to surround Michael and his parents with Your holy presence. Give them comfort and peace as they deal with their baby's illness. Please give them an extra measure of Your love and bring fast and easy healing to this precious baby. In Jesus' name, Amen.
And, hey, I did that fire truck! too cute!
