Our dear, sweet son is still plagued with this nasty, nasty cold. As a result, his behavior has been atrocious for the past week. Church was anything but peaceful today. Sometimes, I hate to say this, it's just so much easier to not go when he is tired or isn't feeling well. I know that there are lots of other cranky, loud children surrounding us, and I shouldn't think twice about taking our grouchy, non-compliant three year old; but it is not fun and is stressful! I feel like people are thinking, is she going to control him ---or the other-- she should just leave him alone-just let him flop around on the floor and suck his thumb. Mass today felt like the longest hour of the weekend, which is really too bad, considering it should be the most peaceful hour.
We stopped by a friend's house on the way home, which was fun for Michael and me. However, as soon as we walked in the door he lost all composure and threw the mother of all temper tantrums. That was a fun hour, too!
I hope his nap is very, very, very, very, very, very LONG! Josh is helping me out by going to the grocery store, maybe I'll take a little nap myself. After this morning, I deserve it! Scratch that, Josh is making me fill out insurance forms for my leave of absence. : )
I just really, really want him to start feeling better soon. It's been a long and trying week, and unfortunately it doesn't seem like the cold is behind Michael B.
