The Princess on the Effects of a Cold

The Princess has a cold. She came in to tell us about it this morning around 1:00. And to get in bed with us.

She felt hot, and the two of us discussed our options: 1) Try to get the poor baby back to sleep in spite of the fever, or 2) Participate in a 3-way wrestling match to hold her down long enough to get some medicine in her, knowing she might well throw up the medicine the minute it touched her tongue.

We chose option #1.

Today she's doing OK, although a bit runny in all the places in which a cold will run. Awhile ago, she gave me the most pitiful look a Princess can muster and said, "Mommy, I have wet in my eyes."

Awwww! Hope she's feeling better! And Option #1 sounds good to me. They need rest, anyway....
