Happy Mother's Day to Me

The fun thing about being a mom is that you never get to stop being a mom, not even on Mother's Day. I spent mother's doing exactly that, being a mom...........to a fevered sick little girl....................Mckaylie. I let her lay in my lap while I read her stories. Gave her lots of love and kisses, trying to help her feel better. She's even been sleeping on the end of my bed for the last two nights.

I took her to the doctor today. She has strep. Isn't that the perfect irony, to spend your mother's day loving and caring for your child only to find out the next day that she's probably been infecting you with her streptococcus germs the whole time. It's ok, though, because I'm sure that I speak for all the mothers out there, that even if I'd known she had strep I still would have held her while I read to her and gave her hugs and kisses, because that's what we do as moms. We love our children through the good and the bad, even if that means we suffer for it later!

But, man I hope I don't get it!
