earaches and aretha franklin...

Okay, so I took Emma BACK to the doctor yesterday, because she has been on amoxicillin for 7 days and is still hurting... We had decided to supplement the natural remedies that we were trying, like garlic oil, with the antibiotic, because she was just sooo miserable...
Dr. Rice said that her right ear is clear, but the left one is still very infected. So, she put her on a different antibiotic...
So, we woke up this morning and noticed that she has hives all over her torso! So, she must be allergic to this one! Go figure....
I'm waiting to hear from the doc, for what the next step is....
Those of you that pray....please pray that the Lord would cover her, we really feel that the enemy has been trying to keep her sick, even from birth...
We have been praying hard here, but could use some back-up!
Blessedly, she is not completely inconsolable, but still loves mommy's arms, and finds comfort there...
Sweet...
: )
Anyway, other news around here:
Summer found a job finally!
It is VERY difficult to find jobs here in Washington. She had put applications in everywhere, and finally got hired at Subway. She works the same hours as her best friend and loves it.
She told me yesterday that they were working with a lady that is kind of staunchy, and ...well, let me just quote:

S: "We need a radio in here"
Lady: "Nope, not allowed to have a radio...."
S: "Hmmm....well, we can improvise...." (she smiles as she glances at best friend, Morgan)
M : (Holds pretend microphone and bursts confidently into song)" WHAT YOU WANT..."
S: "BABY, I GOT IT"
M: "WHAT YOU NEED"
S: "YOU KNOW I GOT IT..."
and so forth...
they all proceeded to join in and sing RESPECT...... dancing included.
That is, until a customer arrived and those in the front stopped, leaving Morgan belting in the back room by herself, to her embarrassment.... :)

Fun Times...
