Today we stayed home yet again trying to recover from the mass amount of trauma the last couple weeks. We did take off to visit daddy at work and take him coffee to help lift his spirits. Due to the lack of nutrition my son has received in the past 6 days, I am desperate to give him anything and everything. This morning he took a donut and some eggs and ham for breakfast. This sounds like a lot of food but he eats like a bird and only had a couple bites of egg. I was so happy for him that I conveyed my happiness by rewarding him with a little powdered donut hole which he ate the whole thing. :)
As we were driving to Michael’s work to bless him with a coffee, Cooper spotted Starbucks before we even pulled in and immediately began asking for something. I have bought him many boxed Vanilla Milks in the past several days to help entice him to drink in order to stay hydrated. :) But to my surprise we wanted a cake pop which I gladly gave him. But not only did I give him one, I bought their 2 for $2.50 to save me $0.50. Or, if I’m honest, I wanted a bite as they are incredibly delicious.
He was so excited to receive this cake pop that he devoured it before we even reached daddy. He had the residue on his little lips when he gave daddy his welcoming kiss.
Realizing that he isn’t eating very much and still refusing liquids, I knew I was treating him a lot and that soon enough I would have to break a nasty habit. Avoiding this thought I was very thrilled he ate the whole thing and asked for another. :)
Moment of Truth: I’m delighting in the little things as a mom knowing that what used to be a concern for me is all but a breath of fresh air today!
