An amazing sight
so as I mentioned before sophie is really sick. she has a nasty cold and cough... its her first time being sick so we are kinda scratching our heads at what to do... thank goodness for my sisters and adam (paula's husband... my personal on call doctor) so last night when sophie was just crying and crying in agony of feeling like crap and not being able to sleep we were just clueless of what to do next. we gave her medicine, humidifier, raised her head... Everything they tell ya to do... and she was still screaming... so we went to the best choice. a blessing. derek put his hands on her head and as soon as he said her name she calmed down instantly and went to sleep. it was amazing. it seems that everytime derek gives me or her a blessing i cry at the strong spirit I feel and to see his priesthood be able to bring comfort and peace to sophie was probably the best thing ever. it made me realize how lucky i am to have this in our home. the priesthood is an amazing power that i seem to take for granted at times. Derek, thanks a LOT for being worthy of this great blessing and being able to bless soph last night. arent we lucky to have this in our homes and our lives so we can even call someone when we need it? :)
ps: mothers... any tips on making sick babies happier are very welcome!

That's awesome Maqueca! Yes, we are so blessed to have the Priesthood. Thanks for that.
Poor little Sophie, it's heart wrenching when they are so sick. Do you think she might be teething? If so, you could try getting some teething tablets from the pharmacy. They help ease pain of the cutting teeth. If its not teething, and just a terrible could and cough, just keep doing what you're doing. Lots of fluids (probably have heard that a cojillion times) and snuggles. It's hard when you can't give the little munchkins cold medicine. I hope she gets better soon.
You are extremly blessed to have someone in your home to give a blessing when needed...take it from someone who has to call someone to come to her home :(
Before putting her to bed try getting in a hot shower with her and let the steam try and clear her out...I'm so sorry you are having to deal with a sick little one, anytime you need advise i am always a phone call away
