So…yesterday Drew was sent out of childcare with a fever. A school friend took him so I could run a lunch meeting I had planned. I found them napping together. So sweet. Then last night his fever spiked and I couldn’t get it lower than 103. After an ER visit, Drew can now boast his first ever UTI. Jealous of the little man? Nope. Did I enjoy watching him get poked and prodded? Definitely not. But I’m relieved he’s going to be more comfortable soon. The lesson I receive: sometimes discomfort comes before comfort and relief. And the process to relief is not always fun.
