It's Mom-mom's Birthday! 01/25/2012
It's my birthday! Guess what Caleb got me? Go ahead, guess! He got me puke! Wasn't that sweet of him? Caleb has only seriously vomited once in his life. It was when we were in Iowa visiting family. It was about 45 minutes before church. One puke. Then done. I think he did it so he wouldn't have to go to church that day (we all had those days as kids when we pretended to be sick to play hookie from church... admit it!). But yesterday afternoon marks the first time in his almost 3 years that Caleb has ever had the flu. He's had colds. Minor fevers. But never ever the puking flu. So last night, as my very first 31st birthday gift, Caleb gave me vomit. I got to get up a few times last night to change his sheets, wipe the puke off him, give him a kiss and lay him back down to try to sleep some more. And he was up at 5 this morning as a extra special bonus gift. I love my baby boy and I'm honestly not bothered by this in the least, I just feel bad he's not feeling good. There is nothing sadder than a sick toddler saying "Mom-mom, my tummy hurt." In a perfect world, my birthday would involve a happy, healthy little boy, maybe a trip to a restaurant as a family and a little swimming at the YMCA after (the most fun you can have with a toddler... EVER). But since this world isn't quite perfect, I'll go home, take care of my tired, "tummy hurt" little boy, hopefully get some sweet snuggles and call it an early night. And even if my night is as vomit filled as last night was, it'll still be a good day because I get to spend it with him. Commentsstephanie 01/27/2012 18:26
