It's official. In case there has ever been any doubt. Any prior awards given to me for the Worst Mom Ever have been trumped today.

I've had an out of town trip with work (and my boss) planned for two months now. Avery woke up this morning with this (see picture). I couldn't cancel my trip and not going wasn't an option.

So, I left my sick baby at home in tears because she couldn't believe that I would not stay there with her.

After two hours in the doctor's office, it's official. She has the flu AND strep throat.

I thought Wes was handling it all pretty well. And he was. Until Avery started throwing up and throwing up and throwing up (eight times so far). Did I mention that she threw up in our bed?

Yeah, he's not handling it so well now. And where am I? Stuck in a hotel room in Decatur. Am I enjoying my "evening of no responsibilities" any? Nope, I am wallowing in misery over the fact that there's not a single thing I can do to make either one of them feel better.

Like I said - Worst.Mom.EVER.
