A new quest

It's funny what being a parent motivates you to do sometimes. Both Zoë and Nico have the croup (Zoë's on the mend, while Nico's getting worse). The number one thing on my To Do list today?

Try to get sick.

I'm hoping that I can catch the virus the kids have so that I can pass antibodies on to Nico through nursing. It only causes laryngitis in adults anyway.

How should I go about this? Have Zoë sneeze all over me? Cough in my mouth? As committed as I am to this cause, I don't want to have anything to do with snot . . .

Oh it does sound crazy! But I know just what you mean. There is just such wisdom and purpose in our bodies and the union of mother and baby.

Sleep deprivation! With two young kids you probably already have that covered.
