Anyone? Anyone? Does anyone want a really grumpy little dude with a constant cough and a bad attitude? Oh, and a constant call of "Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!"
Why does he get sick before my days of single parenting? Yup, Ben's off to kill turkeys tomorrow (the feathered type, not the type that make your life miserable like the taxman) just in time to leave me with a snotty-nosed grumpy dude.
He apparently does not believe in covering his mouth when he coughs despited repeated reminders and he doesn't seem to recognize the 10 foot rule - that is he has to remain 10 feet or more away from me at all times -- so I think I'm destined to catch this thing no matter what I do. Just in time for two full days of meetings at work that I'm leading. Timing is everything, eh?
He's got glazed eyes but won't sleep.
He's asked for tons of different foods but doesn't eat them.
I play with him but it's never enough.
The tissue boxes are emptying rapidly and there are used tissues scattered wherever he decides to drop them.
I'm going to have to bring out the big guns...Caillou to the rescue.
