there is nothing worse than when your kids are sick. it's just such a helpless feeling, especially for a mom, whose job is to make everyone feel better. poor little ethan has been hit by a nasty cold and cough bug AND the flu bug and is just so miserable. we are going on our
sixth day of really high fevers, drippy nose, weepy eyes, no sleep and a limp toddler who just wants to be held around the clock. it's breaking my heart! and i'll be honest, i'm feeling a little stir crazy, i'm sure ethan is too. and i think i could live without ever watching another episode of "little einsteins" again and die a happy woman.
the bad news is that our pediatrician said the flu strain this year is about 10-14 days! what the? the good news? it's not the "throwing up" kind of flu, and, we're not in the hospital, so we'll take it and just count ourselves lucky. poor little guy.
