The coming sick day...
Ever since my daughter has started daycare I wait every day for her to come home sick or wake up with a cold. I know it's a way for their immune system to get stronger, but it doesn't make the juggle of sick days any easier. And this morning I heard her cough in her room...
She didn't have a fever and was acting fine, so she is in school right now, but I've got my cell phone right by my side waiting for THE call. And I've got a list of my afternoon calls here in case I have to move them.
I hate when she is sick - she is miserable, I feel bad for her, and whatever semblance of schedule we have goes right out the window (and leaves me working til 3am:)
I hope I don't get the call today...

echo in your head. I've had the call twice this week from school. Luckily, this week, it seems only back to school tiredness and blues-(and that's a whole 'nother wave of guilt). My poor, tough little guy! It's not easy to play Candyland, fetch popsicles, and cram in work during naps or movies. I always ask myself what could I do differently??

Great idea for chicken soup - I think I have some frozen chicken legs I'll go defrost now..
