It's amazing to me that none of us here in the valley are sick. We see Papa Brent on a regular basis and spent the same weekend together enduring the thermostat wars. He even came to Morgan's baseball game and had dinner last Saturday! My money is on the snot-nosed kids from the mommies group and possibly the Avila animal farm. Check out what the Mayo-Clinic has to say about prevention, I think they know what they are talking about. Besides, a sore throat is a small souvenir compared to dog piss on a leather sofa!
Prevention
"The single best way to prevent illness is also one of the simplest: hand washing. Teach your children to wash their hands often — before eating and after using the bathroom, and after spending time in a crowded public space or touching animals. Show them how to wash their hands thoroughly, covering all hand surfaces — front and back — with soap and rubbing hands vigorously under warm running water. Teach young children to scrub their hands for as long as it takes them to sing the alphabet song or the "Happy Birthday to You" song — about 10 to 15 seconds."
