there are hard times too...

When you get pregnant and you have your baby, you totally forget that you have some really rough days ahead of you: your baby getting sick, your child being mad at you for the first time, or when they become a teenager, telling you that they don't need a mom.
These are the times that everyone chooses to not think about,
and for good reason.
They suck! Lia is sick for the very first time and I can't imagine a worse feeling of helplessness. Just watching her be miserable and yet she still has that same smile all day long. 
it's inspiring..
it's heartbreaking...
it's beautiful..
She is such a tough little girl. I'm not sure what she is sick with. At first I thought it could be allergies; I get very bad allergies and I have the same symptoms when I get them. This morning when she woke up, as her smily self, she was coughing pretty hard, and even though I cough with my allergies, I am terrified that it could all be in her chest, for pneumonia or something!! 
I know I'm paranoid, but I worry! 
I'm a mom. 
On this Mother's Day, I couldn't be doing a more rewarding thing, than taking care of my sick baby girl. I know she will eventually get better. In the meantime, my heart will be breaking in sympathy for her. I love her so much and I hate seeing her miserable. 

Keep smiling sweetheart! You will be all better before you know it!
I love you.
