In case you didn't know...
In case you haven't heard...
In case the incessant whining has not yet reached your corner of the earth...
the world is coming to an end.
Why?
Because SOMEone has a stuffy nose. And she doesn't like it.
It all began with Clara starting some sort of nasal discomfort down South here. Friday she came down with what has amounted to a light cold. I am of course glad it is nothing more, she had a low grade fever Friday night, but all is fine now. Drippy, but fine. Sunday afternoon, after playing at a gymnastics gym for a birthday party, Greta succumbed to the same fate. We were gently awakened this morning by a strange sound that turned out to be Greta attempting to breathe through her pathetically clogged nostrils. (Did I mention it was 4:30 and she was on our floor?) As we dragged her into bed with reassurance and pleadings for quiet, she was quick to tell us how unhappy she was because she couldn't suck her thumb with a 'snuffy' nose. However, being the persistent young lady that she is, somehow seemed to have found a way.
While I am fairly certain Greta is feeling definitely less than fine, we have been reminded no less than a dozen time since she came home today (nearly 4 hours ago today) that she hates having a stuffy nose and when is it going to go away! And so, I sit here, with bedtime on the horizon hoping that the snuffiness finishes soon, because goodness knows there are thumbs that need sucking.
And, sleep to be finished until after 4:30 in the morning.
