"Mama, hold your baby"

Trystan has been feeling under the weather the last three days. Poor kid woke up Thursday morning hacking and as the day progressed his nose and eyes started running and the fever set in Thursday night. I knew he was not feeling well when I dropped him off at my mother-in-laws on Thursday morning...and I felt like the worst mom ever when I left him, though I knew he would be perfectly fine with grammy! I had yesterday off and we spent the day snuggin and watching movies. I called and made his appointment with The GI specialist yesterday, and while I was on the phone he kept saying "mama hold your baby!" Sweetest thing ever. So I was scheduled to work this morning, but got up with Trystan in the middle of the night and he was running a fever again and wanted to "bye, by" (rockabye). I thought I had him back to sleep so I put him in his bed and he sat up with snot running down to his chin and big tears in his eyes and said "mama hold your baby." I called in!!! sucker maybe so, but I hate leaving him when he is not feeling well. Daddy had to work today and Trystan was going to spend the day with grandma, but sometimes a baby just needs his mama.
