Its a well-known joke/stand among moms that moms have no sick-days. You are still mom, you still get the meals, the potty-calls and the school pick-ups. My poor hubby does everything he can, but well - it takes mommy and daddy to make a day in the kid's life :) All of a sudden, I start to see the reassurance I always had around me... the hugs. The sudden inquiries - 'mommy, are you okay??.'
In case I threatened to forget the reassurance, as I mixed my coffee this morning and peeped out the window, I see the determined 3 year old marching behind the father to help recycle.
I think my heart expanded three sizes in that instant. haha! I suppose sharing menial chores has a special place in my heart. #guffaw!
To top it all, the famous learn-to-read books had arrived and he is transported into delighted squeals "Its going to be goody!"
Well, this isn't such a bad sick-day. Heck I still get to hear a kid laugh. I still get to feel a small hand in mine. :) And thats why we moms are suckers - we just love something that outside and independent of ourselves :)
