Sick kids...

UGH!!! My kids VERY rarely get sick, like the last time Bonez was sick was 2 Christmas' ago. Princess has been to the Dr. 2x because she was "sick". Once was a few months ago & the 2nd time was today. She has a double ear infection & a "yucky" throat. Wonderful...

Bonez was just "off" most of the late morning, I asked if he wanted to go to the Dr. when I took Princess, nope, by then, he was feeling fine. (Of course he was). Him & I went to the movies, you could tell he wasn't feeling well, but kept saying he was fine. By the time we got out, all he wanted to do was come home. He was literally asleep within minutes. He ended up sleeping for about 2 hours. He has been in tears ever since & is just laying on the couch. Poor guy! I'm going to have to call & get him in first thing in the morning. I think he has strep. UGH!!! He has perfect attendance at school, this has been a HUGE thing for him, & something that is VERY important to him. I would HATE for him to miss one of the last days of school, esp since he has come so close to earning this "award". Let's hope we can get him on antibiotics & he's doing better quickly!


I'm tellin ya, there is a reason my kids are never sick, it's because *I* don't do well with it. I have gotten literally no sleep the last 3 nights, Princess will come into my room (or where ever I am) crying & telling me she wants to go "ni nite"... BUT she wants me to put her right back in HER bed! ARGHHH, you mean the bed you just got out of, you REALLY want me to go put you back in THAT bed?! Yes, I do it, I carry her (still not sure how I have managed to do that with my eyes closed without falling or dropping her) & then wait while I try to fall back asleep. It's right about the time I'm starting to go under that I hear her again. I'm telling you, this is NOT fun!!! I HATE having sick kids. All I want to do is crawl under my blankets & curl up & fall asleep, I bet I could sleep for days at this point. I also hate feeling so helpless. There isn't anything that *I* can do to make them feel better. I would take it on for them if I could, unfortunately, I can't do that. I've been pumping them full of meds & saying lots of prayers for them. I just wish there was more I could do. I really wish my "majic" wand was working, I would wave it over them & get them back to "normal".

Ok, I'm off, time to take care of the sickies...
