Counting blessings.

It isn't that there hasn't been a million things to blog about. Fascinating times are afoot as the new guy tries to go about cleaning the huge piles of steaming dung left by the old guy. But sometimes things get in the way. The little one picked up an infection and had to go back to the hospital for a second ten day stint. It was sort of scary for a few days, but she's now home and disrupting nightly slumber just as she was before the little episode. We have to count our blessings in a couple ways. Mommy was good enough to notice something was wrong. The pediatrician was good enough to notice that this wasn't a take two aspirin and call me tomorrow sort of situation, and the treating doctors were able to do what they do best effectively. From what we've picked up, it sounds like, this wasn't the most common malady seen in the NICU, but things were taken care of.

Not that everyting went perfect at the hospital. There's a lot to comment on there. There's also my desire to catch up on some of my spin on some of the recent news, but all that can wait.

It's Chinese New Years and it's just a good time to count blessings. Chief among them, is we really get to be a sleep deprived family of four now.
