No one likes seeing their loved ones hurt or sick, especially mommas! Luckily my toddler has only been a sick a few times in his short life but boy does it break my heart when he is sick. I want so bad to take his sickness away, to make him feel better, to take his place. I try to rack my brain and do everything I can think of to make him comfortable and to get over whatever ails him. Your littles depend on you and want only you when they’re sick/hurt to make them feel better. They know you’ll do whatever it takes. While taking care of sick babies is an exhausting task, it is nice to feel needed. Of course I want them to get better as quick as possible, but I’ll enjoy the extra snuggles while they heal. These moments are ones that make me realize how much my parents loved me and how hard it is to be a parent. I knew they would do whatever it took to take care of me and as a kid I didn’t think anything special of it. Now I’m the mom and I’m the one who would move mountains to make my babies feel better because these boys are the world to me. It’s a hard job being a parent, I realize that now. So here is a shout out to my parents...thank you for making me your world. I’ll forever be grateful for everything you did for me and the unconditional love you showed me (and still do).
