Can They Ever Be Well?

Ok, so my kids just keep taking turns being sick!! I thought we were all out of the woods and then Natalie got sick.... again. She has the worst cold and cough ever. Her eyes are all runny and it looks like she may have pink eye. I'm kind of waiting to see how things go. I know that sometimes a virus can cause things to come out of everywhere! I'm hoping that she is all better by Thanksgiving, which is only 3 days away.
I went out for the first time by myself on Saturday night. I went out with two very good lady friends. We had a blast just eating and talking. It was the first time since Natalie was born that I'd gone out with absolutely no kids. And wouldn't you know that my sweet almost always happy baby screamed and cried the entire 2 1/2 hours that I was away from home? I didn't know who to feel more sorry for her or my wonderful husband who was caring for her? He had our 10 year old(who was a very large help), our 5 and 3 year old who apparently kept fighting and getting in trouble and our little 8 month old Natalie who had a scream fest. I think that may be the last time I'm allowed out of the house if one of my babies is sick. There's just nothing like a mamas love when you are a sick baby/kid. I know I used to feel like that too. No one could make me feel better like my mom. Anyway, I better go and try to sneak a little nap in while ALL of the kids are sleeping. That doesn't happen very often and if I wait to long my chance will be gone!!
