"Mommy, you are the best mom in the whole world."
Sick Day #2...
"Mommy, I love you. You are an awesome nurse. Can I call you 'Nurse Mom'?"
Sick Day #3...
"Mom, thank you so much for taking care of me."
And, today is Sick Day #4...
"Mom! Where's my Gatorade? I asked for it like 5 minutes ago?"
It has been a long week. A very, very long week. The 9yr old has been home sick with the flu. Fever, tummy trouble, you name it. Poor kid. And, until this morning he has been a model patient. So many pleases. So many thank yous. And, even a few I love yous.
Well, someone is feeling better... Now, don't get me wrong. I am so glad he is on the mend but what happened to my sweet appreciative child? Mr. Personality is back, that's for sure, and about to get a reality check. So, please excuse me while I respond to his latest request. Apparently the movie I suggested, "The Princess Bride", is not a cool old movie from when I was a kid but a "stupid" movie with "kissing crap" in it... Breath, just breath...
I love the face. How can he possibly think the Princess Bride is stupid!? Kids these days. I'm glad he's starting to feel better. You can remind him that he can pay you back by tending to YOUR every need this weekend.
