Hopefully this week will bring better things for Riley and Kari. Kari seems to be doing better but she still hurts a little. Riley seems to be a little better too, however, he and I had a bit of a rough night last night. I would notice his irregular breathing maybe from being congested. I also am a nervous grandma right now with all their talk the other day of hospitalizing him and I am making sure that he is alright. As they say "I am ON IT" I had him right in bed next to me last night. He had two nights where he seemed not to have a problem but last night I could notice a problem. I know though his nose is stuffed up etc but he will stop breathing and then take in a big breath after a while. I turn him over and take away any pillow to keep the airway clear and that seems to help. He doesn't wake up from it but I am still concerned. I have this cough etc from the cold so I was up anyway. What a pair we are!
It is amazing my sleep and hearing children... Dave can make "noise" sleeping right next to me and I can tune it out but if Riley so much as makes a small noise I am up and checking things out. I can hear him breathing in the next room... so I am really tuned in. Amazing! He seems to do just fine during the day.
Anyway, on a good note, he is active and playful etc. I have to get this mashed pill into him... I have to put it in his food. But he doesn't really eat and is aware of anything that is "different". Pray that I do. I think I will have to put it in pudding or something like that... ice cream.
Dave arrived on the east coast just fine. He will have a hard time falling asleep tonight because there is a three hour time change. It is early to him. He will feel it this morning. The odd thing is that his bother Steve is also back there on business too. They plan to meet this week and have dinner since they are only an hour away from each other.

I have been thinking about the words "being in Christ" etc. And I had a picture in my mind (what is a vision) how it is like receiving a "robe" like a king's robe... and it's meaning. Here is what I found on the subject later when I was doing research if you are interested. Being in Christ is comparable to receiving his robes; all the power plus authority that goes along with the garments. He takes ours and replaces it with His. Does this help you to see the picture too? :-)
I also have been updating and learning my Facebook account. If you would like to be one of my "friends" let me know at dannadavis_wa@yahoo.com Have a good day HUGS

Hi Danna, hope Riley is feeling better soon. It can be scary when our kids are so congested they can't breath properly. Kristen is suffering a lot from allergies right now and is very congested. Even the Sudafed and Claritin I give her don't work that well but she doesn't want to use a nose spray, which is what I do, and I know it would help her breath much better!
Hope you have a good week and everyone starts feeling much better.
((((hugs))))
My prayers continue for your cuties. It is amazing how we are tuned to our kids and grandkids, I guess that's why God made us mothers, right? Even now one of my kinds only has to walk into our room (they are in their 20's!) and I'm awake straight away, and yet like you, I can sleep through a TV or storm and not hear a thing. I always found if I could keep the room warm and the air moist it helped a great deal. If they were really congested going into the bathroom and running the shower for a while so they could inhale the steam also helped. Even a Nebulizer but just with saline might do the trick. Hopefuly you got Riley's pill disguised enough for him to take it.
