What a day

Today was a rough day from the start.  My little boy came down with a temperature of 103 degrees yesterday.  He had also been complaining of a stomach ache at his preschool.  Trevor went and picked him up yesterday and I met them at home a little later.  Well, we were vegging on my bed watching a movie.  Zach, my little boy, had quite a bit of water and was eating some pretzels.  He tells me, "I need to frow-up."  And about 2 seconds later he proceeds to "frow-up" all over himself, me, and my dry clean only bedspread.  I know that with him feeling like this, either Trevor or I am going to have to stay home from work/school with him.  Come to find out my husband has a really busy and important day for today and really can't miss.  So, that leaves me trying to find someone that doesn't have kids at home during the day to watch Zach.  I left a message with my professor, but she never got that.  I called first thing in the morning today to let them know the situation.  I did get a little guilt trip about not being there for my pod partner.  So, I proceed to make another million phone calls to see if anyone can help us.  Long story short, (too late) my husband ended up staying home with him and missing his important day at work.  It is really hard juggling school and home life.  I need to realize that I am first a mother and then a student.  My husband felt that I was putting my schooling above his job.  My education is very important to me, but my family is more important.  Trevor kept saying that by me missing one 3 and a 1/2 hour morning was not going to keep me from graduating.  He is right.  Anyway, I made it to school and did what I needed to do.  It was an informative day and I learned a lot about the differences in scalers and curets.  I can't wait to start using them.  We actually got to sterilize them today.  Watch next clinic day!  Sarah is coming to scale you!
