SICK and tired

We had a VERY LONG weekend

Cough Cough Cough

I think that's all I've heard this weekend

I must have said COVER YOUR MOUTH a million times

I jinx it every time

Parker has an allergy appointment next month

and I had just said, he has been doing SO GOOD

BAM

Just like that

The poor little guy comes home from school with a sore throat

and within an hour his nose is running like a faucet

He had a low grade fever all weekend and couldn't sleep because of the cough

When HE doesn't sleep; WE don't sleep

Last night, I had to chuckle

We were in bed and all of a sudden I heard Parker's cough through the baby monitor

I thought I had been asleep for hours

I looked at the clock

11:00PM

The hubby got out of bed and turned the monitor down
He had drill this weekend and didn't want his sleep interrupted

What does a Mom do?

I got up, gave Parker some water, an inhaler treatment and more cold medicine

Then I rubbed his back for a half hour and told him that if I could,

I would make him better

He whispered, I know Mama

It breaks my heart when my babies are sick

I'm embarrassed to say, I'm still in my pjs
Not feeling so hot myself

I think this is on the menu again tonight

Ahhh Yes, homemade chicken noodle soup
