Jack has been sick the past few days. I stayed home with him yesterday, but had to go to work today. He's home with DH, but DH's phone is ringing off the hook with business calls and poor Jack still feels crappy and is crying. He's usually so happy, even when he's sick, but this time he's been fussy. I feel so bad not being there with him. He just doesn't do as well when he's with his dad. Not because he does a bad job or anything, I just think Jack feels more comforted by me. I guess it's a mom thing. Plus, he's on antibiotics, nebulizers, Tylenol, Benadryl, etc and DH is kind of clueless as to the best way to deal with those things. I handle it much better (maybe that's a nurse thing, LOL). I would go home, but I missed 12 hours of work yesterday (unpaid) and have probably topped out on my time off. At least I'm off work tomorrow. Sorry, just had to whine to ladies who would understand!
Thanks everyone. I snuggled him when I got home from work (even though he puked all over himself and me), and he's going to get lots of snuggles tomorrow on my day off!
