Nels is still not feeling well – runny nose, cough and sore throat. Somehow, miraculously, Solvei has still not caught it. Every time I give Nels medicine for his symptoms, Solvei wants some too (no, you’re not sick). Every time I wipe his nose, she wants hers wiped too (no, you’re not sick).
This morning he was coughing a lot from the phlegm, so I decided to “suck him out” and went to get the nasal aspirator. When I came back and Solvei saw it, she knew what it was for (I know because she pulled this face…)
(and then this face…)
She looked so excited that I think she wanted a turn at that too (no silly girl, you’re not sick!).


That is too funny! My kids RUN at a full sprint when the nasal aspirator is broken out.. Her eyes are amazing!!
