As with most toddlers his mood is hit or miss, I like to think he is usually a big fan of me, but sometimes he is tired, or sick, or just plain grumpy, so those moments when he is super loving and playful I just eat those up, because I don't know when the next grumpy gills is gonna come out.
This last Sunday we had a celebration for my mom's birthday and we had the whole family (minus my brother Paul's family in Utah). It was awesome having almost all my nieces and nephews together, I just love my family so much. Anyways, Clark was in one of his super good moods on Sunday and was hanging all over me the whole night. I was LOVING it. He would only play with me, he sat on my lap for me to feed him cake, when he got a boo-boo he came to me for comfort, words can't describe how much that warmed my heart!! He also shared a bite of his cookie with me, now if nothing else, that right there is true unconditional love from anyone, but especially a toddler, you just don't share cookies.
However I have since learned that perhaps as cute and loving as it was to share that cookie with me, and all the slobbery kisses I got I probably shouldn't have allowed all of that. Because now I have a very sore throat and runny nose and overall crappy yucky cold. So after going to the doctor and making sure I didn't have strep throat, I now have orders to use flonase twice a day for 2 weeks, allegra twice a day, and advil for when I'm in pain... oh and they best part... a salt water gargle.
However after all is said and done, all the snuggles and kisses and loves I got from Clark on Sunday, I'd say all this pain and sickness is totally worth it and I'd do it all over again!! I just love that kid!!!
