Mom moments

Good and not so good.

Not so good -

Having a child wake up late on a Sunday night having trouble breathing and discovering the motor on the nebulizer has burnt out. And it's 16 degrees outside. And having to decide whether to bundle up said child and try and find an all night pharmacy that may have a nebulizer.

Having to decide between staying home with sick child and take him to doctor or go to work and give useless training class. Thankfully having Grandma be able to take child into to doctor to find out there's nothing to do for him but what I'm already doing.

Listening to child cough endlessly and have him call you in and say in sad little voice "Poor baby" and ask you to fix his cough and know you can't.


Good -

After giving child nebulizer treatment at 3:00 in the morning, having child lay his 40 lb bulk on me, settle his head on my chest and says "Perfect, perfect. I love you Mommy."
