The best part of a sick kid

[lilac05]

Also add: Not feeling guilty for nothing getting done around the house.

Cleaning? Cooking? Laundry? Nope. Can't. Kid(s) have been sick, I "can't get anything done. "

I hate when my kids are sick, but it's the "Get Out of Jail Free" card for parents!

In our case it's sleep. Past 7am two days in a row, 3 hour nap time? Sure!

Yes! We watched SO much TV yesterday AND got tons of snuggles. Even though it cost me getting puked on it was worth it. (I'm sure I'll be puking a couple of days from now and regretting that statement)

I secretly love that DS1 isn't constantly talking. It takes a temp of at least 102 to shut him up.

When I only had one kid, having a semi sick kid was kind of awesome. We'd snuggle on the couch all day, watch TV, and do absolutely nothing productive. Now, I still have to care for the other kid, so it's not as much of a break for me. But I still get the snuggles :-)
