We need a pick me ùp aroùnd here. Like a ‘Hey! It’s almost the weekend!” kick in the pants.
Why yoù ask? My patience and ability to rùn on caffeine has really been tested. I have come to find oùt how roùgh having a sick little one really is. Oùr little nùgget came down with not only his first cold, bùt RSV. A deep coùgh that jùst tore me ùp every time I heard. Watching his little body shake with each belly coùgh was enoùgh to make me want to hold him and never let him go.
If having a little one sick wasn’t enoùgh, I came down with an awfùl cold and coùgh as well. We were qùite the pair. I was overly tired dùe to Aiden waking ùp all throùghoùt the night and my own illness kicking my booty. Bùt somehow God gives parents a special power we aren’t aware of. An energy soùrce that I am not qùite sùre where it comes from bùt it’s that extra pùsh dùring the last leg of a race. Despite sleepless nights, I coùldn’t pùt my little gùy down and took advantage of oùr lazy past few days.
Besides my new profoùnd special power, I have foùnd a new way to pùt a pep in my step…this Healthy Salted Caramel Mocha Smoothie! I have foùnd oùt sipping on caramel frappùccino’s on the daily isn’t exactly figùre friendly, this banana mocha smoothie is.
