Sick Babies...


Today is Sunday and instead of going out for church, we are staying in and nursing two little sick girls.
Alyssa had been fighting off a runny nose and cough for the past couple weeks, and last night it got the best of her. She also gave it to baby Bella. She can hardly breathe through her nose and has gunk draining down her throat so she gags and chokes on it. It is the saddest thing in the world for a mother when her kids are sick. Escpecially when they are so small and they can't tell you want is wrong and you can't really give them much of any medication to make them feel better.
It was a long night of getting up every other hour with Bella choking and being all stuffy, she was waking herself up. Then she would want to nurse, but couldn't really do that very well because she couldn't breathe through her nose while drinking. It was so sad.
I am really tired today and a little disappointed that I couldn't go to church. I really needed some spiritual feasting to remind me of my purpose here on this earth. It is easy to lose sight of that in the day to day grind.
I can hear my little Bella crying, better go see what is the matter.
