...but Davis still knows what he likes! Last night, as I held him on my shoulder in the rocking chair while his fever was on the way up, I was reading to Grace out of one of her books. He was absolutely pitiful. However, at the mention of ice cream, he popped that little head up, smiled wide and said "ICE CREAM!" When he figured out we were just discussing the tasty treat, his head went back down to my shoulder!
Isn't it funny how little kids are when they are sick? My kids are like most, I suspect; they want so badly to be held, then discover it doesn't make them feel better and they get angry. Davis' fever got pretty high last night and I could hear his stomach churning. He never threw up, thankfully, but did continue to cough. He and I were up from about 2 until 3:30 this morning. Yep, naptime will come early today and for both of us!
When Davis wasn't feeling well before bed last night, Grace decided he'd probably be too sick to take her to school this morning. That meant she would get to ride with the cool, older girls who live two doors down. Kyla and Hailey are in the 5th and 3rd grade and their mom, Cheryl, has offered to take Grace to school for me anytime. Grace loves to go with them and it's so funny. Yesterday, we were outside for awhile and the older girls asked Grace if she'd like to come down and play hopscotch. Our girl was grinning from ear to ear as she ran off to play at their house.
It was a pretty day here yesterday. Temps were in the 50s, but the wind was chilly so you had to stay in the sun. But you better believe we were out there enjoying it!! Today is supposed to be even nicer, with highs in the 60s, but surprise, surprise, lots of wind! Tomorrow, we're supposed to be back to the 30s. Oh joy!
