 | first germs of fall |
One of the great ironies of the common cold: The family members I’d most like to relieve of cold symptoms, are too young for over-the-counter medicines. And pulsatilla doesn’t seem to be helping.
We spent the weekend zipping from one party to another, and ended up with a head cold. All six of us. Happy three day weekend!
Sick babies and toddlers are just so pitiful, not understanding why they can’t breathe through their noses and why we insist on wiping the goo off their faces time after time after time after time. Then again, I do understand about those things, and I’m still annoyed to be sick. And if I could get away with making a sad face and having someone else carry me around slumped in their arms all day, I probably would. So maybe babies are just logical about their illness. Either way, I hope it’s a short-lived sort of illness.
Oh, dear. Hope you folks feel better soon. I have a bad feeling its coming our way.
Awww, yes I can so relate. And they can’t tell you where they hurt, it’s a sad time! I pray for healing for all of you!
No fun man! What a bummer, I’m sorry and wish you all a speedy recovery. But I like the new place, awesome job lady.
Babies and toddlers have it sorted out -they are wiley little creatures. Next time I want something and am denied it I am contemplating screaming “But I WANT it, I want it NOW!” at the top of my voice and then throwing myself down on the ground and rolling around. Might work.
I remember the first time Matilda had a tantrum in the shops I had to double check that it was in fact my child stretching her vocal chords not someone else’s. I was so taken aback, I didn’t know where the mess of emotions had come from, nothing like that had ever come out of her before!
