I'm so sick
My lupus is in flare and I have a cold that is threatening to turn into pneumonia and I'm not able to take a sick day. Parents don't get sick days. Seriously, if I end up in the hospital, we don't have a game plan. I'm not allowed to check in with my baby; Josh can't afford to take 1-4 weeks off of work while I'm laid up. Responsibility blows.
In better news, James had his first swimming lesson yesterday. We're going to need a different technique for dunking him because he took a lungful of water. Despite that, by the end he was kicking and looking like he was having fun flailing in the water. He gets a look of sheer determination on his face when he's trying to learn something new and interesting, and it looks like swimming is going to be one of those things.
