Poor Baby!

Abram caught a little stomach bug and has been feeling under the weather. This is his first real illness (other than the million colds he has had). I feel so bad for him! I found out he wasn't feeling well on Tuesday when I went to get him from his nap and he had thrown up in his crib. I will tell you, I have never felt as much mom guilt as I did finding out that he had thrown up and I didn't know. He had crawled to the other side of the crib so he didn't have to lay by his throw up. After I got him cleaned up he threw up one more time and made little coughing and groaning noises. So sad! He is feeling better now but still isn't back to himself yet.

Excuses

I like my new job a lot. One complication I have run into is late cancellations...meaning that I am calling from outside the house because no one is there. Or at times they do call me an hour or so before said appointment. Here are some highlights of the excuses I have heard:

-Our whole house has head lice (ok, that works for me)
-We all have the stomach flu and temps over 100 (you didn't know this a few hours ago??)
-I am in detention and have to stay after school
-People are coming over later (and...)
-I am too busy (really? when has that excuse ever worked...)

And my all time fav.
-We are moving...right now (As I show up at the door)
