The Sickies.....

So the "sickies" has arrived at our house and the sad part about it is I don't even know how it happened.....I picked Nico up at Gma D's house on Friday and the runny nose and cough had started, he felt a little warm but nothing out of the ordinary. Then by the time we got home and ate dinner, he was coughing and his poor little nose was on it's way to looking like Rudolph. Now he's not eating right and a low grade fever, and only wanting Mommy which melts my heart, but in the same way breaks my heart because I know he is feeling yucky.

It moments like this in my Mommy role that I know that even though he is very independent or tries to be, he still needs his Mommy to hold and do those things like blow his nose or clean up his face when he sneezes, cause who knows what comes out of his mouth....ewwww....and that makes up for all those sad feelings of him growing up and it makes me realize as I have learned over the last 6 months that no matter how old you are, you still need your Mommy.

Mommy's are there to nurture when you are feeling sick or when you are down to help you hold your head up high no matter the situation or to be strong even when you feel like hope is all gone....and even though I know my Mom's do those things for me I guess until today with Nico's "sickies" I never considered myself in that category as I put my Mom's but I guess when I think about it I am, and will do all those things and more which is why God has put me here to be one thing and one thing only, to be Nico's Mom, and to me that is best gift that could of ever been given to me.

Hope everyone else isn't hit with the "sickies" at their house!!!

Until next time....
