What a day!

The good news is Zach is finally on the mend. He started the morning with a very slight fever (5th day in a row!) but as of bedtime, he was fine - YAY!! He's still draining and sounds rather hoarse, and is still a little whiny as a result. But he was also more playful than he'd been in a week, so we had a fun day.

Kaitlyn had one of those days that she just pushed all day long. Started with not wanting to eat her breakfast, then she threw a fit when I took her plate away. By this time she's sat not eating for almost 45 minutes! So now I'm trying to hurry up and dress her to get going to preschool, and she's crying because she wants to wear her pajamas. And I don't have her favorite pair of undies clean (this must be the downside of no more diapers!). We finally get out the door and drop her off at preschool with no further incidents. And she has a great time - came out all happy and excited. Lunchtime was fun, but then she took a really short nap, like less than an hour, and the rest of the afternoon and evening was no better than the morning. The strange thing is, I know a lot of it is intentional. I ask her "x" and she says "no" and I see her watching me, and as soon as I move on to the next thing, she starts crying because she wants "x". UGH!

Of all days that Rick has to work late. By the time he got home, I kissed her good night and told him she was all his! Long shower, here I come. She was asleep by the time I got out. I am SO praying tomorrow is a better day! It amazes me how she can drive me so nuts, and end up making me smile at the end of it all.
