Why I love my little guy...

He had his adenoids out on 2-26... on 3-1 we went back into the dr who told us he had a cold. we've been dealing with the symptoms off and on since then. Saturday he started in with more of a cough and had some icky green snot when he blew his nose.. It's just progressed down from there. Tuesday (3-16) he was up until after 1 am coughing.. Coughing through his albuterol dose, coughing after delsym... Just coughing and coughing the poor thing. After talking with the advice nurse for his doctor we have an appointment at 8:20 am on 3-18. While explaining to him that the doctor is just going to check him out, listen to his lungs, check his ears, eyes, throat, etc. He asked how they were going to check his throat. After explaining that they will have him open his mouth, stick out his tongue and say "Ahhhh", he came back quickly with "but mom! it's dark in there"....

Even after trying to re-explain to him that what they will use to see down his throat has a light on it and they will be able to see his throat just fine, he again came back with "I don't have a light in my throat mom.. it's dark in there." He just makes me laugh sometimes. I certainly got a laugh out of him tonight. Not to mention he wants those "bad buggies" gone.. I can't blame him. It's those "bad buggies" that are making him sick. Hopefully he'll get better soon. After all what fun is spring break going to be next week if he's sick???
