UPDATE 3:35pm Today our son is sick and resting with mom, who is also recovering from something. Just paid him a visit and he looked so miserable. Poor little booger. Thank God he doesn't get sick often, though.
He cried and cried while I was there and I held him awhile before I left. I was supposed to have him over as usual, but I felt that he needed rest rather than activity, so I suggested that he stayed and see him tomorrow.
I gave our son a hug and he cried for mommy. My wife then said, "Kids all over the world as for their mommy when they're sick."
