Morning, Afternoon, Night

The twins are better today than they were yesterday and all through the night. 
Marlane was up all night with them as they were frequently vomiting, sore tummy's, raised temperature, and very miserable. I had quite a good night but at around 7am I got up and Marlane had some sleep in  the guest bedroom. The girls were still terrible though but not vomiting, so Marlane definitely had the worst of it.. 
Through the day they improved bit by bit but didn't want to eat anything until late evening when they had chicken noodle soup and some hard boiled egg.
They fell asleep, in Marlane's bed again, at 10pm after I'd read 'The Tailor of Gloucester' to them. They loved the story, and it was a book with flaps on each page which hid the mice, the twist of thread, etc. Note to self; Must take them to the Tailor of Gloucester's shop which is very close to the cathedral.
I'm hoping they will be much better tomorrow but this link says it can take up to 3 weeks for a full recovery. Apparently it is 'Slapped Cheek', caused by a virus so anti-biotics wouldn't help.12.
