Getting to be the baby

For the past week I have had a stomach virus and I have discovered the one thing more difficult than taking care of a baby who hasn't quite gotten the sleep thing down yet and that is doing it while I'm sick. Since I do try and see the glass as half full, the fabulous thing that has come from this has been all of my husband's sweet gestures... voluntary dinners, back rubs, laundry, and even playing with my hair (which earned lots of points). My darling son also spent his first night away from us thanks to his "Mimi" aka my mother who was willing to pull the night shift so that I could sleep. I thank God for thoughtful people and though I am on the road to recovery I think I may be sick for a few more days. :.)
