Our daughter will be three the beginning of September. It's amazing how strong children can be even when faced with unpleasantries of life. She's had allergies her whole life - runny nose and itchy watery eyes. This has led to several ear infections due to the congestion. She now takes allergy medicine daily to help with the symptons.

Last week was particularly hard for us as her chronic cough has gotten worse. It got to the point it was waking her and us up. We went to the doctor and found out she has asthma. She was prescribed Flovent and albuterol and a spacer with mask. She tries so hard to take the medicine but it is very hard for her.

What amazes me though is how pleasant she is. She is such a happy child even though she is going through so much. She helps to remind us about her medicine even though she doesn't like it and how hard she tries.
