Conversation after dinner, when Zach wanted to help out:

Jason: Sorry, buddy, you need to be at least four years old to help out. How old are you?

Here's the setting from last night: Jason and I were in bed, lights off, baby monitor on and the screen off. He's got his eyes closed and is starting to fall asleep, I'm on my side facing him. The kaiju begins to move and squirm around. Intestines? You didn't need those anyway, right Mom?"Your son's awake," I tell him, laughing a little ( Read more... )

I've been exhausted lately, but wonderfully, it's not the flu shot. The nurse this year gave me good advice, to take an antihistamine when I got home. I took a Zyrtec and so far, no fever or chills.
