And the big boy woke up with a fever of 101.5 once again! I couldn’t figure out what was going on so I took him to the doctor and it turns out he’s ok. Just a cold, no infections. Thankfully. I’m still tired but chugging along. I’ve told David to take it easy so he read for a while.
While Nathaniel stuck and unstuck stickers on himself.
Then they played with the flower toy again.
And laughed and laughed. That toy’s a big hit. Thank you Cole!
Here’s the face little boy makes when he doesn’t get his way.
And then the tears well up. He’s so good at turning it on and off my boy.
Now they are off to bed. David’s going to be home tomorrow and I decided to take the day off. I need some time to relax and not stress about work and david and I’ve been exhausted and unmotivated all week so I am hoping having a 3-day weekend and resting a bunch will help.
Let’s see! And apologies for not posting the sketches earlier (see, i told you, not motivated!) I’m putting together a post right now.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that I took David to the doctor and he really is ok.
2. I am grateful that I took tomorrow off. I will rest and relax and be kind to myself and hug my kids a bunch.
3. I am grateful that I have some good books to read and TV to watch, both of which will help me relax.
Three Things David’s Grateful For:
1. I am grateful the doctor said i am ok {* his pick for the journal}
2. I am grateful that I played on the computer.
3. I am grateful Daddy said he’ll spend some time playing with me tomorrow.
Sick little ones can be trying to our own health. Yes, be kind to yourself and rest. (Even big kids need their mamas when they are sick–I had two sick boys two weeks ago, and they are 22 and 17 now. Yes, I took a day off to take care of them. This week, I took care of myself.
