{Sick Day}

One of the memories that I treasure about Quentin's parents, is how they would be there for me and our children at the drop of a hat...no matter what. I can recall several occasions that Frances would take off work and stay home with one of my sick kiddos, so that I could go to school or to work. I never understood why she would do that; why she would go without ...until today.
 
Miss Olivia was sent home from daycare with a tummy bug. Mallorye was at her first full day of work at St. Bernards and Matt was training some new guys at his job. It's important to me that they succeed and build their careers so that they can enjoy life with this little bundle of life...important enought that I was happy to leave work to take care of Miss O while mommy & daddy worked.
 
I remember how comforting it was to me to know that someone was caring for my children that loved them just as much as I did while they were sick...I hope Mallorye & Matt felt that same comfort today...and Nana got some quality cuddle time while giving some TLC :)
 
Trying to get in a few zzzz's while Olivia rested....

Such sad little sickly eyes....she stayed most of the day in my arms and isn't that what sick days are all about? Rest and Pampering!
