Dear Blog,

I'm calling in sick. Yeah, you heard me. Not only do kids give you love unconditionally, they also give you their germs. So not only do I have O's head full of snot to contend with, I have my own. Can I take the Stuffy-head, achy all over - kick you right in the seat of your pants and make you sleep for 3 days medicine? No. Cause O is still having trouble getting through the night without my encouragement. (He's usually a really good sleeper so I can't complain too much if he needs a little more snuggling when he's sick). So I've got to be on my game. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he gets into a REM cycle before 10 pm tonight. Wish me luck.
