Last night my daughter had a temperature of 104 F.  Not so good.  So this morning we went to the doctor.  She has strep throat.  I never knew that strep throat could cause a child to vomit.  Apparently it does.  So now she is on antibiotics and doing much better.
Now for the funny part:  In the lobby of the medical building is a nice fountain.  People like to throw coins in this fountain.  Well, my five-year-old son decided to go "fishing" for some coins.  Before I could stop him, he rolled up his sleeve and plunged his arm into the water.
"What are you doing?" I asked, completely shocked (even though I shouldn't have been).
"Getting money," he answered nonchalantly.
"Honey, that money is for the poor people.  Leave it in there," I said.
"But mommy, you are poor!"
(Do you think he heard me complain about not having enough money to buy things too many times?)
