December Days - 12.7.10

Seven days of blogging in my December Days series and now a third blog about Kyron!  The other kids are starting to voice their jealousy, but I don't think any of them would want to be the focus of this entry!

One of the tough things about growing up in our house is that sooner or later you are bound to have a picture taken that you immediately want destroyed.  The older kids are able to create such a stink about it they often times will win out, regardless of how great of a candid shot I think I got.  The younger kids, don't have the same pull (yet) and I am able to capture moments like I did tonight.  (A couple years ago I took a similar shot of Caeden)

Poor Kyron is sick tonight with a fever, body aches, and feeling like he may throw up.  Mom is out at a MOPS meeting so that leaves me as the primary caregiver and comforter.  Not sure that even taking this picture is the best way to demonstrate my sympathy for him, but it certainly captured the moment and his face says the rest.

An hour after this picture was taken, he's curled up in a blanket on the couch next to me asleep for the moment. I have a feeling I'm in for a long night though....
