Because of the sniffles yesterday, we didn't go to MOPS.  I was so sad!  I literally kept watching the clock and thinking about what they were doing at that exact moment.  And then when I heard great comments, I was so sad that I had no idea what they were talking about!  Talk about a bummer...
I guess this is to be expected when your child is sick.  But when it used to be just me, I never had to miss an event.  It didn't matter if I had the sniffles.  I guess the reason I miss things now is that my friends are mommies.  And I know what it's like to have a sick child for the last month, and that is the LAST thing I want them to experience!  Although I'm sure it's a good thing I'm doing, I just want to be with my mommies!
So it's time to invent some germ catcher so I can still go to MOPS.  Some sort of tent covering that allows him to breathe but also allows him to come to every event I want too.  Could you imagine seeing my kid under a tent?  That would be pretty amusing for everyone but him.  Don't worry, I'd make it clear so he could see out of it. 
I always thought that only daycare babies got sick.  So, since I stay at home and have no other children, Jacob should not be sick.  I expected him to get his first cold at 5.  Obviously that may have been a bit unrealistic, but in my mind it was quite lovely!  Unfortunately I guess God didn't agree... haha!
What favorite event did you have to miss when your child was sick??
