So I have had company for the past 9 days, enjoyed that and had a blast. Looking forward to Monday... Then came Nick.... SICK!!!!! What a bummer. I was looking forward to being alone and just doing my own thing and getting my house ready for Spring. Well Spring is about Sprung and I am not getting anything done. Now he is home for 3 days . End of quarter at school. great.
FYI....... I feel sorry for who ever marries my Nick. First off... He is a baby when he is sick. Wonder where he learned this??? Not to mention names but KEN! Second off. I did not train my kids that I will wait on then hand and foot when they are sick. But some one did! Wonder where this came from? Not to mention any names but..My MOM. Once Ken was sick and she was here.. She gave him a bell to ring to let her know when he needed something. Give me a break is all I could say. She gave a grown man a bell. Do you know what happens when a sick man has a bell???? I do!! It is not pretty believe me!! Something she gave Chrissy when she was sick as a child too. But men and a bell is a lot different then a girl with a bell! If you know my Mom you know loves to wait on people hand and foot. Having her around is like going on a cruise. She does everything for you and loves to be at your beck and call.
Third thing... My kids want to know where the bell is now. Way to go MOM! I am not as good of a Mom, servant, maid, or person as my Mom. Nick will need a wife like my MOM! Good Luck finding a girl like that. I do not think that they have those on this planet anymore.
So needless to say I have got nothing done, had a sick boy, and I was told not to send him to school for a few days. FUN TIMES!!!
BUT on a good note. I had a "Leave it to Beaver Mother Moment" today. (in case that is before your time. That means your boy acted like they did back in the 50's when respect was a common thing and everyone was polite. And you were proud and it put a smile on your face.) When we were leaving the Doctors office. My Nick ( yes I will claim him today! Not Ken's Nick or our Nick but ... My Nick! :) jk. ) shook the Doc's hand and said "Thank You" I know it is not much to some but I was very PROUD! I felt like yep he is getting it! He is learning what I am teaching. I just love that kid. the Doctor was surprised and made mention that they don't raise them like that anymore.Now because of that moment I will be a Good Mom today to my sick little Nick. But after today I am calling my Mom to come back and be Nick's Nurse. jk.

I love that you have Ken's Nick, your Nick and our Nick. . . . . my husband just does not understand this concept . . . . he thinks they should be "ours" all the time!!! When they are good they are mine, when they are bad they are his, and somewhere in the middle ours!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have sympathy for you, even though they are sick and laying down it still is not the same as just being ALONE!!! I hope he gets better soon and that no one else gets sick, you will have to show me how you got this comment box:)
ReplyDeleteI think men get sicker than women. I always want Sid to sick first so he will baby me when I get sick.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine my husband with a bell! Great post about Nick though...it's those moments when we feel like it's worth it to be a mother right!
ReplyDeleteI think just about all men are babies when they're sick! But the mom never gets a rest, darn them! Good for Nick being respectful, awesome! :)
