In Which, Yet Again, I Fail To Notice the Obvious

Update: It took us until 11:30 to get the little guy to bed last night. Then at 12:30 he appeared in our bedroom again, weepy and bleary-eyed, and promptly threw up rather spectacularly all over, well, pretty much everything. When will I learn?

Sometimes being a special needs mommy gets in the way of just being a regular mommy.

Oh Susan, I'm so sorry. And yes, what a good and valid point. Sometimes we do get too wrapped up in the special needs side of our lives...kind of like not seeing the forest through the trees.

Hope Isaac is feeling better soon!!

Oh dear. So sorry to hear Isaac is now ill. Hope it passes quickly (and in a less spectacular fashion than last night's display!). Poor guy...and poor Mommy & Daddy! Sending healthy thoughts your way. xo

Oh, goodness, how AWFUL. No one would have seen it coming, though, Susan. I always kick myself later: Oh! That's why he was pale, ate no breakfast, and didn't want to go to the park! (Slapping hand on the forehead...) Now I get it! Hope he feels better very soon.

Thanks, everyone! He is a lot better this morning. Eating a bit and in a happy mood. And the carpet cleaners came, so we are back to a semblance of normal.

Glad to hear that Isaac is better. Yes, we all do it. The special needs sometimes make us forget that they catch colds and get earache too.

Yes, you can dream. May the force be with you!

i always get taken by surprise when fluffy's sick even though, when i look back, the signs are there!
