Kid Stuff

"Mom!" "Mom!" I rolled over to look at the clock to see that it was 4:00 am. "Mooooommmm!" I dragged myself out of bed and into my son's room to see what was wrong. He had been home sick 2 days last week with a stomach virus from which he has finally recovered. I was just praying he wasn't getting sick again.

"What is it, Chris?"
"The tooth fairy came!" Oh yes... last night he lost his third tooth and he excitedly and expectantly placed it under his pillow last night. Thankfully, the tooth fairy remembered to do her job and left a little something for my lil guy.
"I'm so happy she did, honey. How much did she leave? "
"Well.. can I turn my light on to count it?"
"No! It's 4 AM!"
"I'll just feel the coins and figure it out"
"Sounds good to me... next time just tell Mommy when you wake up.. not at 4:00 am."

Thankfully he fell back to sleep right away.. Unfortunately the tooth fairy can't say the same.

Sounds like our house here on Monday at 4:00 in the morning when Olivia woke me up to tell me she just threw up in her bed. Lovely. And, well I"m sure you know the rest of the story by now. All is well and she is home healing!
