sick children should be quarentined.....

Alex had the flu this week. I got thrown up on. Twice. The poor boy is so exhausted he doesn't know what he wants and so he just whines, "momma momma momma momma momma momma" constantly. It's starting to wear on my nerves. I'm about to snap. But then I take a deep breath and remind myself that he doesn't feel good and I'm the only thing that makes him feel better. So I slap a smile on my face, pretend I don't have three inch bags under my eyes, get another cup of coffee and scoop him up onto my lap where we rock for another hour. Until he starts whining for something else. So here I go.
