Carrie96 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 "Of course. Mommy might take a little nap with you." Sharon helped James blow his nose, then covered him with a blanket and started rocking him to sleep. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
Omo90210 Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 James fell asleep quickly, feeling safe and warm in his mommy's lap. Link to comment
Carrie96 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Once James fell asleep, Sharon reclined the chair and lay back, needing a little nap, herself. James's whole body felt warm from his fever, and his heavy breathing and fevered warmth lulled her to sleep in no time.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
Omo90210 Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 James slept for his usual two hours and then some. Link to comment
Carrie96 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Sharon slept for a little over an hour and instinctively checked his diaper when she woke up. She wasn't surprised to find that he was already wet. She read on her phone and scratched James's back as he continued to sleep on her shoulder. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
Omo90210 Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 When James woke up almost three hours later, the first thing he became aware of was the warm, wet diaper that was swollen between his legs. Link to comment
Carrie96 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 "Hey, sweetheart, did you have a good nap?" Sharon brushed his hair out of his eyes and pressed her lips to his little forehead. "Oh, honey, you feel hot. Mommy needs to check your temperature." She got the thermometer and gently placed it in his ear. "103.3. We'll see what Daddy thinks when he gets home. I may need to take you to the doctor tomorrow."Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
Omo90210 Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 "No feel good," James whimpered. Link to comment
Carrie96 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 "I know, baby." Sharon kissed his hot forehead and wrapped her arms tightly around him. "Mommy doesn't like it when her baby doesn't feel good." Sharon held some tissues to James's nose. "Here, sweetheart, blow your nose."Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment

Omo90210 Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 "I didn't know I had to go!" James sobbed. Link to comment
Carrie96 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 "Shh, sweetie, it's okay. You were still tired from your nap. Tell Mommy when you're finished, and I'll change you."Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
Omo90210 Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 James sniffled into Sharon's shoulder as he finished filling his diaper. Link to comment
Carrie96 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 "Okay, darling boy. Let's go get you changed." Sharon carried James back to room and laid him on the changing table. She removed his wet and soiled diaper, cleaned him up with a few wet wipes, and put a clean pull-up on him. When his pajama pants were back on, she carried him back to the living room. She found Paw Patrol on TV and rocked James as he watched.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment

Carrie96 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 "Yeah, it's a little over 103, and he's been sleeping for most of the day. Do you think I should take him to the doctor tomorrow?"Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment

Carrie96 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 "I'm going to cook some chicken soup for dinner. We had canned soup for lunch, but I haven't made my mom's soup since we've had James. I bet he'll like it."Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
Omo90210 Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 "That sounds great, but we can have some delivered from the deli, if you'd rather do that," Paul answered. Link to comment
Carrie96 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 "No, I want to," Sharon answered. "I can cook a couple of days' worth, so I won't have to worry about lunch anymore while he's sick." Sharon leaned down and kissed James's forehead. "Tell Daddy when you feel like you need to pee-pee, okay?"Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
