Strep throat again

We were on our way to school Friday when Dennis said "I think my throat hurts too bad to go to school." I knew it was serious because Friday was a special day--the elementary kids were scheduled to walk over to the high school and attend the pep rally. He'd been very excited to go. We went to the doctor right away, and he told them "I feel like I have strep throat." So they swabbed his throat and found out that he does. Since Friday, he's developed a nasty cough as well. He's still cheerful and sweet, though.

Yesterday, we proceeded with his Taekwondo tournament. He clearly didn't feel his best but was okay to go. He earned 2 bronze medals. David earned a silver in one of his competitions. It was a long competition, and we were starving when we left, but after a quick lunch, we all felt pretty good, and Dennis was perked up and ready to shop.

I got to see Dennis' interview at church this morning-- he had great things to say about our church and he was so cute on camera. I'm so proud of him! This afternoon he and David had a BB gun shooting lesson (which Dennis loved) and tonight he entertained us by asking the Magic 8 Ball weird and exciting questions. I'm so glad tomorrow is a holiday! I'm looking forward to having a full day with him.
