Darling girl, please do not think I am uncaring or wish you ill, but if you're going to get sick, could you please just do so & relieve the suspense? The occasional ear ache, grumpiness, and being up half the night are not reason enough for me to take you to the ER. You couldn't do this the easy way & get sick during the week? You've taken 2 naps today & have spent hours writhing on my lap tired, but not wanting a nap. When you've finally given up & napped, you've woken up once happy as a lark making me think all was well. The second nap you took (and you never take two naps anymore) did not end as well. You woke up sweaty & whiny, but sans fever.
I really don't want you to be sick, but I'm tired of the ill baby limbo we're living in. We have plans tomorrow with your grandparents that involve an hour & twenty minute trip from home. I will not be particularly happy if you lull us into a false sense of security only to get sick that far from home.
So, could you please make up your mind?
All my love,
Mama

Ahhh, the unending pleasures of motherhood.
I hope Bitsy decides firmly in the negative.
And full-fledged health returns to prevail for a looooooong time.
