You slept all night & woke up at at 6am, sat straight up in bed & said “I’m so hungry! Can I have some applesauce?” You ate some applesauce and a half a cheese ball, then fell back to sleep until around 8am. Ms. Sandy came around 9am & you were excited to see her. We were laying in my bed watching Ferdinand the movie. It only had about 30 minutes left, but you started it over because “Ms. Sandy didn’t get to see all these parts!”
You looked much better this morning, not 100% but drastically better. Your low grade fever subsided. I was still struggling to leave you because I hate leaving when you don’t feel good. But you gave me a kiss & told me, “Mama, you better get going or you are gonna be late to work!” Basically, you just wanted me to stop kissing you and talking to you so you could watch your movie lol!
I felt much better knowing you felt much better. Around 11:20a, Ms. Sandy texted us that you were having some toast with honey & orange juice. You looked so cute in your robe. I thought you were well on your way to feeling better today, but you ended up still being pretty lazy and still not much appetite. Ms. Sandy had you take a bath after toast, which you needed. Unfortunately, she fell & broke her arm!! It was so awful. She called me in tears & I was in the middle of a closing. I called Grandma Noot & she came over right away to stay with you until I could get there. You guys watched 101 Dalmatians & you were feeling a little better.
I called to coordinate with Grandma Noot a plan for how I would get you – would she drop you at my office or could I make it home in time for her appointment. We decided I could make it home in time. You really wanted to come to my office & got upset that you couldn’t come. You were really upset and crying because you wanted to tell everyone hi. You sat in the corner of the bar on the floor and told her you were angry. She explained to you that you don’t want to get anyone else sick. You ended up falling asleep during your meltdown, literally while sitting up, because you were so exhausted. She moved you to the couch & when I got home around 3:30p you were still sleeping.
Literally passed out sitting up!!
You finally woke up at 8pm! You sat straight up and asked “is it morning time? Did I sleep all night on the couch??” You looked a million times better and definitely got your energy back! We got a new infrared thermometer today so you were excited to take me, Harry’s & your own temperature all evening! I made vegetable stew and you ate two bowls! Finally! You ate literally next to nothing the last two days. I will keep you home from school tomorrow just to give you an extra day to feel even better and then you should be good to go.
We watched a little bit of TV and then you wanted to FaceCall Ms. Sandy & Daddy, so we did. She was in a lot of pain but you were so compassionate. You told her you weren’t scared you just wanted to help her. We will have to go visit her in the next few days once she’s feeling a little better. Right before we headed to my room, you grabbed a spoon and dug into the veggie stew singing “stir, stir, stir the vegetables up!” You snagged a few more bites as well. Another good sign!
We climbed in my bed around 9:45p and called Daddy. You were all chatty about his day, asking where he was, what he was watching and where’s Mr. Tom? You told him all about Sandy’s fall. No news gets past you lol. We let Daddy go and then watched Ferdinand the movie in my bed. Of course you weren’t tired because you just woke up from a 5 hour nap not long ago lol. I’m sure I fell asleep before you. I woke up at 1:45am and the TV was still on and you were still awake snuggled right next to me watching Nickelodeon. I told you it’s time to turn the TV off & get some rest. You grabbed the remote, turned the TV off, snuggled right up next to me, asked me to scratch your back and you were asleep in 15 minutes!!!
I love you so much!
