Well not a whole lot is happening with us besides packing! It seems like I will pack a ton of boxes, turn around and I did not even make a dent. I have learn over the past month of packing, I HATE PACKING! Some times I just feel like taking a blow torch to every thing, and starting over! Oh well I have to keep in mind the reason why I am doing it, Our new house!!

Foy news:
The other day Ashley and I went swimming in our back yard. So being the responsible mom I am, I put sun screen on Ashley, knowing there was a really good chance that she could be allergic to it. But I would rather have her break out and itch for a day or so, then have her sunburned. So I put it on and we went swimming. well a few hours later she started to break out and I was not worried about it for I knew it was coming. And the rash was just were I had put the sun screen. A day later the rash was still not gone. But still not worried about it, so I put it out of my head and just gave her
Benadryl to help with the itching. Well today she woke up and the rash had spread to her whole body. Then I knew something was wrong. So I put her in a baking soda bath, and that really did not help. Well the next thing I knew, I was calling Jeremy telling him I was going to call his parents have them pick me up and take me to his work so I could get the car. So then I called and got that all set up. Got ready to go. went and got the car, talked to Jeremy for a minute, and then headed to the
insta care.
I got to the
insta care and they checked us in really fast, so I was thinking, oh great we will get back there fast too. Not so much, almost 45 minutes later they call us back to get
Ashley's temp, and such. So they show us to the room we would be waiting in. Two minutes later, the
dr walks in and starts talking to Ashley. At first glance the
dr looked like this
honery thing, who would be grumpy and mean to Ashley. Turns out this
dr was the NICEST
dr I have ever had the
privilege of meeting. She was so good with Ashley! (it
taught me not to judge a person by what they look like) So the
dr asked all of the questions and looked Ashley over. Then she looked in
Ashley's mouth and told me that she wanted to test her for strep
throught. I was thinking I came in here for a rash not a sore
throught. But I did not
argue and let the
dr do her thing. Then I sat there for about ten minutes, when the
dr came in, she was fallowed by 10 other nurses and
drs. I really started to flip out. I thought Ashley was going to die or something at that
point. When the
dr saw how worried I was looking she then explained to me that the test came back
positive for SCARLET FEVER! I think that freaked me out even more. So the
dr explained to me that she had brought in the other
drs because it is very rare now in days to see scarlet fever. And she wanted them to see and feel what the rash is like when you have scarlet fever. (The rash is a whole bunch of red spots, and bumps) So they all took a turn touching Ashley to see what it feels like. So the
dr told us to give her some antibiotics and if the bumps are not 100% gone
tomorrow, then to take her up to primary
children's Hospital. Which I am really worried about. We have to keep a really close eye on her, for if this gets to bad it will start attacking her liver, heart, kidneys, and lungs.
So you ask how she got it. That is a good question. I guess
apparently about a week or two ago Ashley had gotten strep
throught, and we had no knowledge of it. She never was
moaping and acting sick, she never complained that her
throught hurt. The only sign we had is she was not really
interested in food for a few days. Her
pediatrician told us that if she does not eat for a few days that is
ok as long as she is drinking. Which she was. Then a few days later she got her
appetite back, and was her normal self. If you look at her you could never tell she is sick besides the itching. Because we ignored that sign, she then contracted Scarlet Fever. So now Ashley is
quarantined for two days,
unless the spots
don't go away
completely then we have to take her to
PCH. Poor Ashley baby!
I am so glad now that I listened to the holy
spirit and fallowed it. Even though at the time I had no idea what I was doing or why I was doing it for I was not that worried about Ashley not worried enough at least to take her to the
dr. But the holy ghost told me what I needed to do, and I did it, even though I did not know what I was doing at the time. I am so glad I listened to the still small voice, we could have ended up in a lot worse position down the line if I had not listened. That is one reason why I am proud to say I BELONG TO THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATER DAY SAINTS! I am so glad I have a
spirit to help me along in my life. I never felt like I really ever listened to the Holy Ghost before. I always just said
ok yes I feel right or nope I feel bad about that. I have
all ways herd of people saying. The holy ghost told me what to do and if it was wrong before, and I always thought to my self,
yah right they hear voices in side there heads or what. I cant
explain it, but today is the first time in my life where I can
honestly say, I LISTENED to the Holy Ghost tell me what to do, I HEARD the voice! At the time I did not realize that I was even under the direction of the Holy Ghost until I started thinking back about the day today. It was then that the spirit had touched me, and told me I did the right thing by listening.
