How a Mama is divided ...
Okay, it has lowered to 38 (I know, it is sooo borderline!! Which is why I am hesitating!), he's asleep, his temperature is below 100. He did wake up earlier to cough, and bit his lip -- poor little bug!! He hasn't eaten or drunk too well today, though I did make Jeff go and get popsicles from the store earlier and he had two of those, so at least he's getting something. Oh, and he ate a cookie. So, I guess I won't be sleeping, but will be keeping an eye on him every hour or so, until I'm sure he's gonna be ok.
This is when it sucks to have more than one kid. I'm afraid to do too much for him, because I have to sanitize myself before getting near Kira, and I just want to hold him and rest with him without worrying if I catch it like I used to do. And then, if he does have to go it, it'll be Jeff taking him while I stay home with Kira, for her safety and health. Your ability to love may multiply with more children, but your heart can sure feel divided.
