I am so glad that yesterday is over.
I try really hard to stay positive on this blog...but yesterday was bad.
About 10 minutes before Ethan left for Saint George (for 3 days),
Kade started puking.
I felt bad for him but also felt bad for myself.
I had signed up for a couple art classes in SLC and they were scheduled for yesterday. Jackie said that she would still watch the kids and she would just call me if he got worse. We got ready and left for her house. We didn't even make it a mile away before Kade started getting sick in the bowl I had placed on his lap. We just turned around and went home. I was having such an internal struggle....do I let Jackie take care of him so I can go do my thing? Do I stay home and lose out on what I had paid for? In the end I just stayed home. I called my Mom at work and cried. I called the Dr. and they said to try pedialyte. Of course, we didn't have any. I didn't want to call anyone because everyone I know has kids. So we went to Walmart, Kade with that bowl on his lap in the cart again. Luckily, he only had to use it once. I bought the kids new underwear and bandaids (aren't I great!) Pedialyte and saltines. I talked to Jenn and Ash and complained. Jody checked on us lots. Kade had it from both ends for about 8 hours. It was so sad to see him so sick. We watched Snow White, Toy Story 2 (two times) and Scooby Doo all day. I didn't do much, played online and stayed near Kade in case he needed to be sick again. Right before bed he was finally feeling better so I sewed up some of his quilt.
I made chicken rice soup for dinner and luckily Kade was able to keep that down.
He was in bed by 7 PM and I kept checking on him to make sure a fever didn't show up. Luckily he slept through the night and so far Add doesn't have anything.
I am grateful that I was scheduled off yesterday so I didn't have to call in sick.
I am grateful for people to check on us and let me vent.
I am grateful this didn't happen to Ethan while I was out of town (stressful)
I am grateful that Add made herself busy by dancing in her new underwear b/c it made me laugh
I am grateful for a washer and dryer.
