Big boy is sick again…

As a parent, there isn’t anything much worse than having a sick child you can’t make feel better.

Both my boys are sleeping right now… Big L has the flu, of the 24-hour variety (I think/hope) and Little X is just sleepy. Big L is now old enough that when he gets sick to his stomach it really bothers him. Little X, (thankfully not sick today) is still young enough to be too bothered by it — he throws up, we clean him up, he’s back to playing again. Big L, however, is big enough that his body now wretches when he gets sick and he’s graduated to dry-heaves… lucky him. That never used to happen when he was smaller.

I cried the first time he dry-heaved… tears were streaming down his face, he was terrified, nothing more was coming out, and he just kept heaving,  crying and signing, “I’m all done, Daddy. I’m all done. I want to stop.”

I still get choked up when he’s this sick but I have to put on my Superdad hat and be strong for him. I wish I had’ve been able to keep my tears back the first time. My crying just made him even more upset.

*sigh*

Oh… Big L just woke up.

Heh, he’s a great sport even when sick…
I really hope it’s just a 24-hour thing.

[EDIT]
He just got sick again. Poor guy.
