As a mom I find I never, ever want to hear "that cry". You know, the one in the middle of the night that just tells you instantly something is wrong. Poor Jake woke up last night with a fever of 102 and telling me it hurts, it hurts. I didn't know what hurt and, at 19 months, he couldn't tell me. After a visit to the pediatrician this morning and a very long night, we have our diagnosis. It's an ear infection. This is only his second one.
Today is definitely a day when I feel I am doing nothing at 100%. I'm tired, Hubby is tired and the kids are wiped. I am at work, arriving two hours late and leaving an hour early so I'm not doing what I need to here. I am not home with my sick boy so I don't feel like I am doing 100% there.
I know this sounds like a whine but today, well today is just not fun.
Thanks for your encouragement!
ReplyDeleteWorking when littles are sick is simply brutal. You cancel meetings at the last minute and have to make it all up on your own time. Assuming all is well since this was MAY, but as we head into the cold season - best of luck!
