mom duty

Yesterday felt like a day of mom duty. I woke up early to stand in line to get B into pre-school (she got in, who hoo!!), then I had to get a fax from her dr in Oregon sent down here, run over to my church (thanks guys) to sign it, have it faxed back to Oregon so they would release her medical records to her new dr down here in Texas. Its that time of year where B has to get checked up for her all her uti issues (that I'm praying we will come to find out have resolved them self). Numerous phone calls back and forth to drs offices, running around signing papers, etc. I still haven't gone to the grocery store so made dinner out of random stuff we had and hoped B would like it (minus the capers she thought it was good, just a simple pasta dish). Then last night around 2:30am B woke up with a stomach ache. As a parent that's kinda the worst (to me anyway), you can't do much for a stomach ache and I'm always paranoid I'm missing something, like, is her appendix about to rupture?! Theres a fine line between gas pain and a rupturing appendix no? Anyway, after Adam and I rotating caring for her, she finally went to the bathroom and it turns out her appendix is fine, whew! Needless to say, this morning I feel like I've been run over by a truck. Mom duty takes on many forms, yesterday it was the details, today I'm hoping for simple cuddling and playing. Happy Friday, all! xo
