Miki is sick again. This time, some upper respiratory infection which means 3-4 days worth of screaming and yelling at each other over meds. My kid HATES medicine, no matter HOW good it tastes. I still remember the crummy old days where my cough and antibiotic syrup tasted like anti-freeze. Now they have it in a variety of fruit flavors AND in dissolvable tablets.

Soon, they'll be transdermal and the kids will stick them on like a patch. Band-aids does wonders to kids. The effect of instant gratification is appealing, so we stock up at every given moment.

Things we do for our kids.
