Last night Kev didn't feel good before bed but then he woke up at midnight with a fever. I got him some medicine and lay with him until he fell asleep again. At this point I knew that I wouldn't be going to work/school today. I sent sub plans to show movies to my classes and I stayed home with Kevin. I still got up to bring Marissa to school though. When I got back, Kev lay in my bed with me and put on Forrest Gump to watch. (He loves that movie) I snoozed until the movie was over. Later in the morning Kev and I went to get some cough drops, ginger ale and vitamins. While I made homemade soup, a coffee cake and did some cleaning, Kev watched t.v. in his room and eventually fell asleep. He probably slept for two hours which is just about unheard of for him. I'm glad because that's what he needs, especially when he's sick and run down.
Tonight they went to their Dad's for the night. I miss laying in bed, reading Magic Tree House with Kevin. We had a lot of cuddle time today.
Marissa and I aren't seeing eye to eye. Her and I need to have a talk this weekend. I miss my girl. Her and I have really become close since her father and I split up. I don't know whether it's an age thing or if there is something "there" between us. I need things to be okay between my kids and I.
Kids are a handful and keeping things running for them and everybody else is a challenge that most could not keep up in any other kind of a job because there are just so many angles, twists, conditions, surprises, priorities, responsibilities, wants, needs, demands, ohhhhh, what am I telling you this for? You already know! Just be the best mom you can be and keep talking to your kids and letting them know you love them (even when they think they can't see it)...it's all you can do because you know it's the right thing to do. You really are a good mom, don't doubt yourself.
