Being sick in the past meant cozying up on the couch and watching endless romantic comedies while drinking tea. It was stinky but it gave you a pass from taking showers and looking like a normal human being. Being sick with a baby is another story all together. It is hard and challenging and down right awful! This past week I got a bug. And I can tell you exactly who gave it to me. A client last Thursday sat in my chair with an awful cough and bright red nose. Right away I thought about putting on a face mask and wondering if that would be professional. I know getting your hair done is fun and we all look forward to the head massage but when you're sick please, Stay At Home! I got home a started chugging airborn and emergenC hoping to beat the germs out of me. Sadly they won. Saturday after work I started to feel tired and I knew what was happening. I was getting sick.
And to tell you the truth I was more scared I was going to give it to Quinne than actually being sick. The thought of her being sick and not understanding would break my heart. I laid on the floor wherever she was covered in a blanket and tissues stuffed up my nose. Pretending to 'play' with her. My throat hurt so bad I think I consumed about 23 cough drops. Which in turned made my stomach upset. It was a sad few days:( Luckly David was home for part of my illness and could take care of me and a wild little baby. I got to watch a movie in bed which was amazing! We don't have a tv in our room so David hooked up our computer and I was able to Netflix the afternoon away. I missed Quinne so much. Even though I was right there I was a mom zombie and missed rolling around with her and kissing her to no end. It is almost impossible to resist kissing her perfect cheeks!
I am thankful to be better this evening. Thankful I get to make up for all the missed kisses. I think it's safe to say Quinne has permanent lip prints on her face!
Love,
Noelle
