3 of 4 of us are leaking

Morgan, Athan, and I have colds. Nothing severe yet, but just the general drippy, coughy yuckiness.

Morgan has had the worst of it so far, running a fever of about 103 in the morning yesterday. It dropped back to about 99, then spiked up to 102 again after dinner. She missed school yesterday and today, but she's pretty perky already this morning. No fever, and not much cough, so maybe she's on the up-swing.

Athan and I haven't had a fever or anything. Just lots of snot. And then cough. Not so bad for me - I think I'll be over it soon. Athan, on the other hand, has always had a difficult time coughing effectively enough to clear everything out before it gets infected. So far so good, but we could use your prayers that he can fight it off before it gets worse.

(just a quick p.s.: We had our first adventure of being pet owners last night. Blue got outside the fence, and Ryan chased him for an hour or so. Then I took a turn. No luck. So we dejectedly gave up chase while we got the kids ready for and into bed. After about 3 hours of running his legs of, he apparently decided that this is, indeed, his home. So he came back. We didn't know if he'd do that or not, so we're super happy to have Blue back today. :)
