So one thing that was passed down from daddy to children is asthma. Bella has always had it and Andrew has had it worse. My kids are great about going to the Dr b/c they have had to go so often in their little lives. The same drill... little runny nose, turns to a cold and then goes straight to their chest...wheezing, coughing, steroids...miserable. A couple of months ago we decided to be proactive since Andrew's is so much worse and go to an allergist. It was the best decision Cooper and I have made! Both kids are on a maintenance routine daily for prevention and boy has it worked!!! Andrew is on the neb daily and takes Singular. He is such a trooper! He just sits and watches Barney and waits for it to finish. Bella is also on the neb but thankfully does not have to take Singular. I can say whole heartily that the hardest part of parenting for me has been when my kids are sick. I did not realize how much stress and anxiety that would bring me! Thank the Lord for Dr. Kalish and that we have had a semi healthy couple of months compared to how it was 4 months ago! Here are the kids in their daily regime of nebulizer treatments...

My kids went through croup - and trips to the ER and breathing treatments and making croup tents and walking in the cold night air to clear their lungs and... whew! It's so hard to watch your child struggle to breathe! Sounds like you were wise to go to the allergist. Just keep praying for God to heal them and ask for a miracle. God loves doing miraculous things.
brings back many memories! do you know how many kids throw fits with those mask on! yours look like it is just fine with them!i love it!! xoxo
