back in the land of the living

sort of. my mama instincts were right-again. back to the Dr we went after my poor baby cried all morning-and this baby does not cry i tell ya. turns out croup wasn't enough...double ear infection had to follow. caleb's only two days into this nasty cold that is making its way around town. literally. have i mentioned how much i hate it when my babies are sick? i hate it. a completely helpless and vulnerable and total lack of control feeling sweeps over my entire being and completely depletes every ounce of energy so that i have to go into survival mode and be okay for them-and trust in Him. to get through it. I am humbled. I never thought I'd be such a wimp when it comes to sickness, that is until these two little boys stole my heart. so now up is more medicine, but my happy baby boy is back!
on a final note. ever try getting thick, disgusting, bad smelling medicine down a 6 month old's mouth? no easy task. not at all. the face he makes while the gross stuff goes down? kinda priceless.
and from all this, once again I am so grateful for our very sweet, very good, and very patient and knowledgeable doctor as well as modern medicine!
