Dr. Mom

Sunday night I was talking to my mom and she didn't sound so good. I could tell she had a cold. She asked me how I was feeling and I responded by saying I was fine just had a little sore throat. To which she responded, "Uh-oh!" Her not sounding so good started as 'just a sore throat'. Sure enough Monday morning I woke up sounding very similar to the woman I'd talked to the night before.
Tuesdays are the days the boys and I usually got over to my parents to spend the afternoon/evening. When we arrived my mom had a little gift waiting for me! I thought it was so sweet. Some Kleenex(with lotion), pomegranate juice, vitamin c tablets, Emergen-C Health and Energy booster and a few of my favorite things--Jelly belly's and Chocolate truffles. Such a thoughtful gift. She also warned me I better not forget it because my dad had been eyeing it all day!:) Sorry Dad, there was no way I was going to forget that prescription. Anyway, it was so sweet and a gentle reminder to me that we all need to be treated with some TLC. I know Tyler would agree I need to learn from my mom as he stayed home from school on Monday because he said he wasn't feeling good and in order to get out of his room I made him mop the kitchen floor. So mean. I guess I'll have to share some of my....vitamin c with him. Thanks mom.

Your mom is the best. And you are a GREAT mom! Mopping the floor? I hadn't thought of that. My dear Chloe TRIED to get sick last week -- and it worked. I just made her sit in her room; no tv, no computer. It didn't work too well, but geez, we don't want our kids thinking that getting sick is FUN!

WHAT! You haven't told me that you are sick! I could have given you some sympathy at least!

You have the most awesome mom ever! That's the best perscription I ever saw!

Okay...and I still love the Tyler had to mop the floor to get out of his room. If he wasn't too sick to do that then...I'd say he wasn't too sick! But...hey I could be wrong! You better give him some of that Vit. C just in case!
