What is hope without foolishness

We have been waiting for a specialist important since last year for our Daughter who mysteriously has a temperature of over 40 for three to four days every month. Last month was the first time it only lasted 24 hours so of course it could have been something else so perhaps she had finally outgrown whatever it was. On Friday I cancelled the appointment we had been waiting for. As someone else may need it more than us. Stupid, Stupid behaviour, when am I going to learn not to put others first as what goes around does not seem to come around. But still I will always have hope.

Friday night Murphys law bit me on the arse and we have been battling a sick shild ever since. She has slept in our bed for the last three nights whimpering and wriggling, she has never slept in our bed and as I had almost no sleep I do not wish her to sleep with us again.

I left a message for the hospital yesterday, I hope they can squeeze me back in.

Oh crap you poor things.

Murphy's Law is the hardest lesson to learn as a parent. You want to tell people things like "yep, he's finally toilet trained" or "finally he is sleeping through", but you must never.

Damn. What a strange thing - happens on a regular basis... These little things need a manual to run. Guess it's not as simple at teething or something. It's all so long ago now - I just can barely remember. Now I just have to worry about the vodka and cigarettes my youngest is getting into... Oh my.

Thanks Martha, currently removing 'finally from Vocab' unless of course it is I slot it into the following,
FINALLY lost all my baby Fat!

Rosie, I can barely remember last week let alone 20 years ago, you are doing well if you can remember your children actually growing teeth! As long it is good vodka, no point flogging the cheap stuff.
