Or, at least I hope so. The Tylenol meltaways and the natural immunity residing within my children's physiology seem to have worked a little magic and everyone appears to be on the mend.

On one hand I'm relieved to be getting back to normal. On the other - over the last four days I have experienced a renewed confidence in my ability to be a proper mother - and the morning will find me unhappy, sad and mournful to be leaving the unending warmth which my children provide to me as much, or even more so, as I try to provide to them.|||110911822334699024|||The Work Release Program
