What's wrong little pookie?

This is one of VE's favorite books "Whats wrong little pookie!?" And thats exactly what Ive been saying this whole week. It was definetly not the week I imagined it would be. I wanted my last week staying at home with her to be full of fun, crafts, nice weather, play time and laughs....boy was I ever thrown off when this week came as it did. V, the poor girl, has been the whiniest and neediest I have ever known her. Three pukes and many sleepless nights and non eaten meals later I took her to the clinic today. Of course they said there is nothing wrong with her. She has fifths disease. Thats it. He said its not contagious and she should be over it in a few days. I was CERTAIN it was her ears. She has been pulling on them and sticking her finger inside of them and saying "ouch mommy!" Breaks my heart. Good news though- no ear infection. He said if it doesnt get better in a couple days to take her to her normal ped doctor and have then do blood work. Poor thing. Here is is 6:22 and she's already in bed. We cut our weekend getaway short because frankly I couldnt go another night like last night. Hopefully she sleeps better tonight. Sigh. I feel just rotten for her. Poor thing, sick kiddos are the worst!
