My poor, poor baby was sick over the weekend – high fever, throwing up, etc – but it only lasted for a day and then she spent a few days recovering. But then on Monday her body responded with the biggest fever blister she has ever had and it just looks so painful. She is no longer able to get sick because her body does not react well to illness. I’ve discussed it with her and she promises to try.

My eldest son was playing a game with her and he said, “Do as I say and not as I do.” And she asked what he meant by that and so he tried to explain, beginning with the question, “Well, if you do what I do, what would you do?”

Without batting an eye, she answered, “I’d apologize.”
