She is doing much better this evening. The clinic called this morning to check on her, and were concerned that the redness had extended beyond the ink circle the doctor had drawn around the affected area last night. We were told that if it hadn't gotten better after one more dose of antibiotics, to bring her in this afternoon for a check to see if she needed to be hospitalized. Fortunately by the time she got up from nap, the redness had receded quite a bit and the swelling had gone down even more. I expect it will look much better in the morning.
Do all families have a Brynna? It seems like if anything happens to a child in our family, a disproportionate amount of time, it happens to Brynna. Who was born with a birth defect requiring surgery? Brynna. Who broke her collar bone when she was 3? Brynna. Who got the chicken pox first when they had all been exposed and none of the others got it? Brynna. (She did then go on to share it with all her siblings. She's generous like that.) Who has tight tendons in her calf making her toe walk, requiring casts, braces, and stretching exercises? Brynna.
Fortunately she's such a cuddly teddy bear of a girl, that you can't help but feel for her. :)

Let's see. . .
1. Who took 33 1/2 hours to come into this world?
2. Who had to be on oxygen to breathe?
3. Who was born with 2 fingers webbed on each hand and each foot?
4. Who charged the fort (aka BBQ pit in the backyard) and had to have 6 stitches between the eyes?
5. Who pestered the mama Chow dog with the new puppies next door through the fence, and mama Chow bit the end of the left ring finger off?
6. Who got stepped on by our horse, Sissy, while driving his Tonka Dump Truck in and out between the horse's legs?
6. Who hid from a petrified mother under the bunkbed and while I was running up and down the street calling out his name, who should I meet????? But George Bush, our current president, who was campaigning for a congressional seat here in Texas at the time?
7. Who slit his thigh open on the chrome strip above the wheel well on our car?
8. Who bit through his tongue playing with his brother, tossing a tennis ball inside a sock up into the air?
I'm certain I have forgotten others, but you get the idea.
The answer: Brynna's Daddy!!!
So, once again, it's in the genes.
wow-I am just now getting caught up I am so sorry to hear about all this. I am glad you took her in when you did and she didn't have to stay in the hospital!
