It had to Happen Sometime

Katelyn had her first fever yesterday. The night before she wasn't acting herself and we could tell she wanted to play but just didn't feel good. Then, yesterday morning, she woke up and felt pretty warm, so we took her temperature and determined that she did, indeed, have a fever. She had been very healthy up until this, with only just a stuffy nose once. She hadn't ever had a fever, until now. The fever made her very tired. She was just so pitiful to watch. She would just sit and play for a second, then lay down as if to say, "Please take me to bed." She slept most of the day, waking only just an hour or so at a time and then she was ready to go back to bed. Luckily we were able to keep the fever under control and today, she is feeling fine.
