Today was the kind of day that makes parenting feel like some kind of relentless torture. When I thought I couldn’t take another minute, I looked at the clock and there was still 3hrs until bedtime. We survived somehow.
\nBill, Trevor and I now all have cold symptoms. Trevor was up several times in the night and I finally gave in and slept in his bed with him from about 3:30am on. My head feels like it might explode with pressure and stress. I am just hoping now that I can get over it before Brendan gets it so that I have the strength to deal with it all. Bill needs to get healthy for his surgery next week. <\/p>\n

Brendan seems well so far but it feels unavoidable. He enjoyed a “Mega Stuff” Oreo today.

Even though Trevor had a good time, Brendan pretty much howled at the door like an abandoned puppy because he didn’t get to go too. I thought he might enjoy some Mommy time alone. Oh well!<\/p>\n

Now that the boys are asleep, we can try to prepare for the next meltdown. You never know when it will strike!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
