It's inevitable - when your little one(s) get sick, you're probably going to get it. What makes matters worse, though, is that you still have to take care of those little ones when you're sick. You, as a parent, don't get a break to recoup and recover (like your kids). You still have to work, clean the house, take care of the kids, pay the bills, etc. while hacking up a lung, running snot everywhere, and generally feeling like you've been hit by a bus three or four times. There should REALLY be a nanny brigade that automatically shows up at your door to do all your duties when you're sick. Nanny, please go to work for me and then vacuum the house, feed my daughters, and make my husband feel warm and fuzzy. THANK YOU! I'd pay $$$$$ for that kind of service! Instead, I'm dealing with a baby that is trying to hack up a lung, cries whenever she coughs, runs snot everywhere, and is trying to wipe all her germiness on her big sister. I deal with all this while having a sore throat, stuffed-up nose, and general achiness about me. I'm really hoping it's just allergies (hubby seems to be having the same issues), but...we'll see.
Where's that nanny?!??
