Today is Will’s second birthday. However, we are dealing with some firsts:
– Will’s first “real” illness: an ear infection in his left ear. Mom’s intutition was right on… I am *so* glad I insisted on keeping him home from school until I spoke to the pediatrician… and I am *so* glad she suggested bringing him in for an appointment! Go me for trusting my instinct that something felt wrong.
– And likewise, his first prescription! For amoxicillin… the same thing I am on right now. For Will, it comes in the pink bubble gum flavor, 2x a day.

Note: amoxicillin now comes in “light orange” flavor… and tastes exactly like I remember it… like bubble gum.
What I learned: you can give kids the medicine in milk. So Will glupped down his medicine in his favorite: chocolate milk! Never has giving medicine been easier.
