Well that certainly hasn't happened in a long time. Talking about last night. We knew Juliette wasn't feeling well yesterday and sent her off to Cindy's with a dose of cough medicine and told her to call me if she was sick. I picked her up and she had a temp of almost 102, but Cindy said she had taken it after nap when she knew I was on my way anyway so off we went to the doctor. Juliette has an ear infection so we have a 10 day cycle of the pink bubblegum stuff (can't spell it---you know what it is). When we put her to bed Josh told her to say a prayer to feel better- She said "Dear God, make me feel better." Then she coughed and said "Oh noooo! It didn't work!" Cutest. Kid. Ever.
I went to bed at 10:30 and just kept hearing her cough so Josh wanted to bring her into bed with us. I went and got her and gave her more Mucinex and put her in bed with us. Now the only time she lays in bed with us is to watch TV so she thought it was party time. I knew it was going to happen, but Josh wanted her with us so I didn't say anything. One hour goes by. Then two. She was bouncing and complaining about not being able to breathe and just generally not feeling good. She couldn't suck her thumb and breathe at the same time. Poor kid. I was upset because she wasn't getting the rest she needed either were we) so finally at around 1:30 Josh took her back to her bed and she fell right to sleep.
I am a mess this morning. When I went to get a coffee the nice new worker at Panera took one look at me and said "Ma'am <I'm a ma'am now apparently> I'm going to give you a double shot of expresso- no charge." I must have looked horrible. Apparently I have a very high tolerance for expresso somehow because it's been two hours and I am still dragging my ass. Oh well. Tomorrow I will be home with her- today Josh is with her.
