Ear Infection #5 since December

There are so many things that go through my mind in a day, that I thought it would be nice to have an outlet for my thoughts. Hence, the creation of this blog. I'm struggling right now. It's been a long 2 weeks. It just seems that no matter what I do at school, I still don't feel like it's enough...but that's teaching, I guess. Also, Jackson is on ear infection #5 since December. It's so sad because he has had this on top of a stomach bug that I gave him this week. I just wish, as a mom, there was some magic switch I could hit and make him better. I hate to see him sick, and I blame myself because I have to have him in daycare. He's facing possible surgery (ear tubes) if this ear infection/fluid doesn't clear up this time. I feel like it's my fault because I can't stay at home with him. Anyway...Jackson is such a joy. Beyond a joy. I don't like to brag, but this kid, even when he's sick is all smiles and giggles. I know I'm one of the lucky mamas because I worked in a daycare for almost 7 years, and I've seen an array of kiddos. I just love him and I want his health to improve without surgery. Other facets of life are pretty good too. Michael and I are doing pretty well after having a trying few months up until around December. We're really working on different aspects of our relationship, and we are falling in love all over again. Well, I guess I'll stop there for the night. I need to go hang with the hubster and my Jacks. Keep it classy, my friends. Until next time.
