The 5th of July

William is sick. On the 4th the kids slept out on the tramp but William came in about at 4:00 am coughing and crying. I gave him a big drink of water and mentioned that he probably had a sore throat from the smoke from the fireworks. He fell asleep on the couch but by 7:00 he was running a fever and must have picked up a bug. Later in the day when his fever was pretty high again Dylan came over and felt him and said "You're burning up, you're on fire". To which William replied "Yeah, it's because I ate smoke". I wondered if he really thought that he had some kind of fire inside because he ate smoke.... You never know what's going on inside those little brains.
