I was somewhat off kilter today. Lilah woke up with a hacking cough, which caused great concern. Concern that I won't be able to attend Andy's Christmas party tomorrow. Everyone was exceptionally slow out the door, arriving at nursery at nearly 9am. Andy picked up Lilah at 11:45 so she could nap at home, which she did for 3 hours. In the interim, I fractured 7.5 hours of work into slightly less than 7.5 hours of experienced time.
Lilah seems much better after her mega-nap and I'm hoping she will be fine at nursery tomorrow. Although she is not terribly ill, she does have occasional bouts of severe croup, which is a terrifying ordeal for anyone who hasn't experienced it before. The barking cough is fine, the stridor breathing is not. The bad cases are fixed with a dose of crushed up oral steroids, but I really don't want to leave my mom watching kids overnight with the potential of a croup attack. I am crossing fingers she sleeps well tonight and arrives croup-less by tomorrow.
In other news, my roast sweet potato and haloumi dinner turned into this:
Yes, I we had fish sticks for dinner. And sweet potato and broccoli. Turns out, fish sticks are delicious. They call them fish fingers here.
