And It Begins
Everyone said “get ready” when we started Wesley in daycare. Apparently, along with learning and socializing, she will also develop her very own immune system. And to accomplish the latter we must try out EVERY illness out there. We have been in school for six weeks, and she has only been to the doctor one time, which I count as a victory.
The problem is that I have been sick for the past three of those six weeks. I guess she developed the immunity after the first illness, but I didn’t? I mean come on, I’m a teacher! I’m supposed to be able to lick the floor and not get sick. Are you telling me that in nine short months of maternity leave I lost all of the super-immunity powers that I had built up over the past 6 years of hugging slimy, snotty, sickly children? How is this fair? Don’t get me wrong, I’m pumped that Wes has the immunities, but did she have to take all of mine?
BLECH!
