INTENSITY

Jordan is cutting Teeth, back molars, WHAT A CRANKY kid, winning, irritable, crying. I know it's because he is in pain. WHAT patience it takes to care for him. I couldn't stand the crying any longer so I took him for a ride on the bike, he played at the park, ran around, played in the sand then I took him swimming at the YMCA. He played like mad, jumped in and out of the pool, threw a duck and chased it until he couldn't drag himself out of the pool any longer. He told me he was tiered and done swimming. At home we laid down, talked about our day and he fell asleep. Only to wake up a short while latter sweating from the pain of his teeth coming in. Gave him tylenol and nubzit and laid with him until he went back to sleep. Poor kid he was awake on and off from sweat and pain most the night. His mom came home from work after 1:30am and took over. HARD work raising a kid, it definitely takes a village.
