So, yesterday while hosting an Item Writing Workshop I got a text to come get Evelyn from school as 3 other children had been sent home with the stomach virus. Thank goodness for Scott who rushed to go get her and stayed home until I could get there. She seemed fine last night so I was praying that the bug would pass over our house.
This morning, I was planning on sending her to school...but when I went in to get her out of her bed I felt some "crusty" things in her bed. Upon turning on the light I saw that their was dried vomit on her clothes and in her bed...first thought...WORST MOM EVER! How in the world did I not know this had happened? Could she have really puked and never had made a peep and then slept in it...lovely...just lovely!
So, after finding out I could miss my meeting today I opted to stay home and work from home.
My 2nd WORST MOM EVER moment....according to my sister :) I decided since she was happy and acting as if she felt fine to give her some formula. I thought it was risky, but figured if she was really sick she would throw it up...which my sister says was totally mean and not nice. That's ok...live and learn!
Well, it's officially been 2 1/2 hours since I gave her 4 oz of formula, she has had 2 mum-mum cookies and some pedialyte and she is still doing well and is asleep in her bed...
so who knows what the rest of the day will hold or what my next WORST MOM EVER moment will be...
