(this is to make you laugh)
I just called the doctor and found out that my kids have a very rare case of something called “Electric Ear”. It started this morning after breakfast, David got it first. The Doctor said, although it is rare, it should go away on it’s own. If it’s not gone by tomorrow I have to go to Target and get some special cream to put in it. Its called “Electric Cream, for the illness no one wants to hear about”. It’s put out by, can you believe it, GE!
Thankfully it is not painful. As you can see by the pictures, the kids are in happy spirits this morning (although Jacob complained of the heat). It was scary for me, though, I was not ready for the . . . “shock”. . .
I’m glad I called the doctor and found out what it was. I was so afraid that they would start glowing in other parts of the body. Like the nose for instance.
Please pray for me today. I’m still shaking. I hope they clear up soon, I really wanted to go someplace. I just can’t take them out in public like this.
Thanks for understanding. I hope that in sharing this, I might find at least one other family that has gone through it. I could really use some encouragement. I feel like a terrible mother.
I thought Grace said it well,
“It’s embarrassing.”
Good to be Home

The look on David’s face seems to show his “guilt” in this conspiracy! So unfair to us gullible ones. My skepticism still didn’t stop me from googling it. Hee-hee!! I think the prayer request was what got me. No worries, I promise to still pray the next time you send out a request.:) Your children are darling, glowing ears and all.
You are so funny! I love the pictures- especially Grace’s and David’s ears. Good job with the use of light in your photography.
Hilarious Shan!!! I just started my morning with a laugh! Thank you!
You got me! How adorable though! Aren’t ears the coolest! We used to do that all the time when we were kids! Keep on having fun!
You’ve got such delightful children and a wonderful sense of humour too! haha!
LOL You had me fooled. I was already thinking of googling “electric ear” since I’d never heard of it. Then I came to the pictures and just howled with laughter. I hope you share the results of your little prank with your children. They’ll love to know that helped you dupe us. Hugs.
Oh you had me going as well. The timing of the words to the pictures. I was really scratching my head until I scrolled down. Now I am just giggling and giggling. Good for a rainy Friday. Thanks love! this was fun! HUGS
Hahahaha too cute – you are a riot! Suz
It took me a bit to realize taht there is no such thing as “electric ear” LOL I was imagining some horrid bug-creature that crawled into one of the little tike’s ears 🙂 thanks for the laughter! your children are beautiful.
You’re a hoot. Just found my message about your need for prayer. You need prayer, all right, LOL! Um, I think Electric Ear is otherwise known as backlighting. Does make some odd pictures, doesn’t it?
