I had a good time tonight. I ate a wonderful dinner and played pool and schull bach at Twain’s. Good time.

Tiller’s got the pukes. It all started Sunday before last, with Rollie having no appetite. Any parent worth their salt knows that when a kid has no appetite for something that they usually scarf down, then you will be dealing with puke within 24 hours. It is a law of nature.
Rollie was out of school five days last week. He had only one puke incident, but then had a fever for six days straight. He felt better on Friday (just in time for the weekend!). Tiller fell sick on Sunday night. Same thing. No appetite, fever, a little puke. Both kids also have a cough with this thing.
This sounds crazy, but I kind of like it when my kids are sick. No, i hate to see them scared or puking, and I hate the getting up two or three times a night to soothe, and clean puke, or to lie awake listening to them cough and worry about pneumonia or freak bacterial infections. Not that part.
But I am reminded how very much I love them, and how I couldn’t bear it if something happened to one of them. Now that they are older, they don’t want to sit in my lap as often, or snuggle on the couch. I am chopped liver. But when they are sick? They want me, need me, even.

Tiller’s Latest Original Song
Thursday, September 19th, 2024Tiller likes to make up songs. Sometimes we capture her songs for posterity, but most of the time, we just have to listen and smile and appreciate them for the ephemera that they are: One little girl, singing her sweet tune into the air, gone as quickly as it came.
