just feverish. like she is reflecting the way we feel. she pulled through till the vacation started. and then her little body gave way to exhaustion. She eats well. she naps. but she wakes up at night with a fever. and her eyes look tired. her disposition is pleasant. and it is such a nice bonding time. I don’t mind waking up at night with her. she remembers every soothing moment. kiss and hug. prayer. and we grow together in closeness. may she rebound soon. meanwhile we snuggle. and learn to pass on social events. even when we are disappointed. cancelling is something I dread doing. but I hope to teach them that selfceare and respect for other people’s health boundaries are things to keep in mind and practice early.
