So, what is it with Jackson that he can read when his dad is out of town?  Sick. Again. But, the interesting thing is that the kid is not sick when dad is here. Only when dad leaves town. So, what should we learn from this?

To say that we are completely in love with the little one would be an understatement. I have no idea how parents let go. I thought I would grow up to be one cool, laid back mom. A mom that let her kids cry so they could learn. A mom that didn’t mind a little dirt. A mom that would be OK with her child wearing his bathing suit to school.  A mom that was OK with a little dog drool on the face. Well, to say I grew up to be exactly as I thought is a big fat lie. I am a complete worrier. A complete overthinker when it comes to being a parent. Did he eat enough, why is he throwing up, should his face be that color, should his feet be that way, does that look normal?

In any case, we are having fun loving the little man. I can’t imagine anything better. Well, he could start by not getting sick every time his dad leaves town, but I will take whatever I can get.
