Feel my pain...

3 days ago I would have said that I'd do anything to have my healthy little girl back. She's got a viral bug and her fever has been up around 102-103 since Saturday. I hate looking into those sad, sunken little eyes and feeling like there's nothing I can do.

Today, although still a tad feverish, she's getting her mojo back. Oh yes. I discovered that she'd painted my ottoman with nacho cheese this morning and thought... now why didn't I appreciate the quietude yesterday?

Thank goodness for blogging because I don't think I could say that out loud and not be committed. Lol.

  3. Oh yes. That is very true. I am glad she's feeling better...so tough to see them sick. But, I guess it makes cleaning the house more simple. :)

  5. Sometimes I wish my kids would get a mystery illness that caused them to loose their voices for just a day or two.

  11. LOL!! :)

    Just what I was thinking with N as we had a moment between ourselves and him declaring I'm almost an adult. (he's 10 now.) Sick kids are never fun, and I'm hoping after a week home, I get to go back to work tomorrow- LOL!!

  12. i will admit that an occasional fever, with all of the accompanying listlessness and no undesirable vomiting, can be a nice break from the usual shenanigans. :)
