What a crazy week! Everything was going great until Wednesday and then the first illness of the school year raised its ugly head. Matthew felt horrible and was not afraid to let everyone know about it. His head hurt, his mouth hurt, he was cold, he was hot, he just wanted to snuggle in my arms while the hours passed away. So of course I indulged him and held him like a baby until he fell asleep. It was longest I think I have held him since he was born, that child is a mover and shaker when he is not sick.
Although he seemed to be just fine the next morning, my mommy instinct told me to get that kid to the doctor. Tom laughed at me but still I persisted. Glad I did too! The poor child has tonsillitis, no wonder he felt like poo. After two helping of the amazing pink liquid, he is doing much better and might actually get to enjoy the long weekend.
I am trying not to worry about the other two who just started complaining of sore throats.
Poor Matthew (and Mommy, too). Hope everyone recovers quickly!
