Whew, this has been a rough week!  Starting this past Sunday afternoon, our household has gone into a state of sickness.  It has been pretty nasty!  As of yesterday we found out that there has been some Pneumonia, and Bronchitis walking around here.  UGH.

That explains my very limited posting over the course of this past week.  Something which I am not wildly thrilled about!  My goal is to post 5 days a week, M-F.  Anyway… This past week as I said, Noah and Tiffany have both been sick.  So, it’s a little bit like Dr. Dad around here.  Which let me tell you is a scary thing.  Mostly pasta for dinner, and last night a pizza.  Every other day–prayer and fasting.

Noah has been quite feverous and just all around run down.  Hence this picture:

Our go to medicine of choice is some knock off brand tylenol.  However, it is not quite the taste that Noah is looking for.  He resisted taking this medicine mostly based on the color.  And I quote, “No, No, I don’t want to take that, I want blue, green, purple or yellow medicine.”

In steps my brilliant wife.  (sick and all)

One drop of magic… and…

…the boomsauce has been made.  The fever has been reduced and the child has been returned to a moderately low-grade-fever coma.  Fortunately, as of right now Noah seems to be on the mend.  And so does Tiffany.

So, here’s the question.  Do we as adults believe that the color changes the flavor?

Does it matter to you what color something is? Think as deep or shallow on that one.  I’m interested.

I think history has shown that color has made a difference.  What about today?
