little mosey was sick this week with some kind of GI thing. he had a bad bout of diarrhea during the night on tuesday night, and then he woke up feeling fine, but i kept him home just in case. and good thing i did! he was eating breakfast with me, and suddenly, out of the blue, had projectile vomit that even included pieces of dinner from the night before. wow. it was crazy. it happened one more time and he waivered all day between feeling fine and starving to feeling completely nauseous. it made work kind of hard to accomplish, to be honest with you, and i really wished that i had PTO saved up to be able to call in sick. but i didn't.
but you know, we had time to relax together. he napped next to me and snuggled with me quietly while i worked some. he painted while i read an article. we watched a couple of movies together. it was kind of like old times, before work, before the baby, just me and mosey. i enjoy hanging out with that kid. i felt like, even though i hated that he was sick, it was like God's little gift to me and Mo to be able to hang out for a day and fill that love tank between us. i'm so thankful.
also, i wanted to tell you the sweetest thing. i snuggled with him one of the nights this week, and as we were laying there side-by-side in his little toddler bed, he said to me, "Mommy, i'll give you princess flowers, because i love you. and i'll give you princess rings and princess pizza. (when asked what "princess pizza" looks like) princess pizza is like a triangle and it has macaroni on it. and it [the macaroni] makes it yummy. [he paused here; i think he was thinking here about how i'm a grown up and not a little girl princess] Mommy, i'll get you grown up princess rings. and i'll get you a princess car, too."
i look forward to seeing who he'll pick to be his wife one day. she's going to be really lucky, because i feel super cared for by him, and he's only 3. he's going to grow up to be a phenomenal man.
