The croup has decided to make another unwelcome visit to the Serr household. I hate, hate, hate when Madeline has the croup. I realize as well as anyone that there are much more horrific health problems that children can have, but this is the one I despise the most out of the illnesses Madeline's had thus far in her short life.
I hate it because it is mostly a nighttime illness for her. I hate it because it keeps her up most of the night, which means it keeps me up most of the night. I hate it because she makes unreasonable requests in the night and I can't say no because crying makes her symptoms worse. I hate that she knows that and milks it for all it's worth. I hate that her symptoms usually last for many days.
Please croup, leave our home and never come back!

keep your chin up my friend. Also HATE is a very strong word:).
I know - I was SOOO tired when I wrote that. I had worked nights for 3 in a row, and then was awake for 2 more nights with miss Madeline. Exhaustion makes me pretty grumpy.
