Photo-A-Day | Documenting my children every day for the month of January.
My poor baby boy.
I don’t like seeing you sick.
You’re so playful,
Fun,
Full of life,
Loud,
Busy,
Animated,
So many things that get taken down by sickness.
Taking your temperature has been a game.
All of you competing for the highest one.
You kids.
It hurts mommy and daddy to see you sick.
Hot, puny, listless.
But you sure think you’re a big boy putting that thing in your ear.
“Look, mom! It’s two three!”
Yeah, you just know we’ve been saying numbers
After the beep goes off.
Two.
Three.
No, honey.
More like one-hundred-two-POINT-three.
But you sure are proud taking your temperature,
Sitting up there like a trained pro,
I’m sure Mrs. Amy would be proud of you, too.
But just so you know,
It breaks mommy’s heart to see you sick.
I’m thankful it’s only short-term,
And you’ll soon be back to my Cooper.
Playful,
Fun,
Full of life,
Loud,
Busy,
Animated,
So many things that fill my well of you.
