what in the world?!

(i will attempt to share this story with you in as grosslessly a way as possible)

once a mother, always a mother, right? it's a job you don't get a break from. you are a mom 24/7. even, unfortunately, when you are sick!

wednesday night, i was suddenly stricken with a disease that caused my stomach to ache majorly. things came out of me in ways that they shouldn't have. i was ill. this is also the night that my dear little baby j.t. decided to cry like a maniac for 3 hours before deciding to go to sleep. since shad had work in the morning, i had to take the brunt of the baby duties, in between running to the bathroom.

now, to shad's credit, he did come home a few hours early on thrusday to help me out. which i'm ever grateful for. but it's not like my duties as a mother went away. there was a baby that still needed to be feed, and only i could do it. and a baby that still needed to sleep, and usually only allows me to get him to sleepfulness.

motherhood never ends!

WEVER...last night my husband, the father in the home, came home claiming he didn't feel well. yet he was still able to eat some dinner. and he claims he had what i had. with a little bit of an upset stomach. narry a diaper he changed the whole evening. he slept well through out the night. (who was up for an hour at 5 am when she was sick? oh yeah...me!) and today his "back is a little achy" from being sick. (whose whole body throbbed with pain when she was sick? oh yeah...me!) and still, narry a diaper he has changed. he even wants to get out of the house and go shopping!

HOW is it, i ask, that i was for seriously sick and didn't get a break, yet my husband was pretending to be sick and gets a nice daddy va-ca?

(before you go all ww1 on me, remember i'm all about the dramatics. i love my husband, and he's very helpful. even if he did pretend to be sick to get out of some diaper duty. this post is simply for fun so put on a smile.)
