My Kids Just Don't Understand Me
Okay, so I've been really sick for almost a month. I had this respiratory thing for about two weeks, was better for maybe two days, and then got it back again, only worse. I think I picked something horrid up in the hospital too because now I have this awful cough that I can't get rid of. I just cough and cough and cough pretty much all day and night. Well, Hunter's decided that he doesn't like it. For a couple of days, every time I would have a coughing fit, he'd yell, "What happened, Mom?!" I'd repeatedly tell him it was nothing, just a cough. So instead, for the past two days, every time I cough he yells out, "Stop it, Mommy!" I laugh every time (which only makes my coughing worse) and tell him that I can't stop it. He gives me this look of disgust, raises his eyebrows and says, "YES. Stop it." He seriously acts like I'm doing it on purpose to bother him and gives the parental face of pending consequences if I continue to push him. And kids think parents don't have a clue. Ah well, at least I remain forever entertained by my children.

Hey! Welcome to the club. At least I'm not the only one doing it now. It is just as bothersome for everyone to ask you if you are all right when you can't stop it. Mine is better and I'm sure yours will be too. You just have to quit annoying Hunter. He thinks your doing it on purpose. :)
What a little character. Apparently you just can't be sick around Hunter or he thinks you are doing it on purpose. At least you are providing entertainment for him. Hope you feel better soon.
Awww. it made me laugh when hunter said those things that remind me of someone.. Smile.. Hope you get well!!
You know what's great? You and your kids continue to provide entertainment for my life. Just when I think nothing can be funnier than what just happened, Hunter strikes again. Oh man, I got a good laugh out of this one!...I suppose I should be kind though. Hope you get better soon and stop calling me in practically the middle of the night!
So why haven't you stopped yet like your son asked you? I don't get it. (Sheesh... selfish woman.)
aw, hope you feel better soon! I totally know what a cough like that is like - I had it my entire first trimester. Try having that AND throwing up AND writing final exams! It was awful!
Hunter is too funny! I seriously hope we have funny kids. Between yours and my sister's kids, I nearly pee myself reading your blogs all the time. Check out the link to my sisters blog on mine and scroll down to find all the funny things Anika does. She is hilarious!
kids say the funniest things. so Tanner is creeping up on my Hunter huh?:) Hunter is a chunk I get a good workout hauling him around although I am sure I look half retarded trying to carry him:)
I was going to leave a comment, but everything i was thinking of saying has already been said. Guess i have to get up earlier in the morning to post on this popular blog!
LOVE YOUR GUTS!!
