10 Things Worse Than Listening to a Sick Preschooler Cry

Powerless doesn't begin to describe it

The kid is sick. The sickest she's ever been. 

In the grand scheme of things, we know it's just a flu. We've talked to our doctor and my wife—who is, incidentally, a rock star for her handling of this—is taking amazing care of her. I'm trying to help where I can but

a) kiddo very much prefers Mommy at times like this
b) Mommy is way too compassionate to say "no"
c) in the last few hours I've come to the conclusion that I'm the next to get sick

Four Children's Books That Will Make You Cry

So while I do what I can, I spend a lot of time just listening the sorrowful cries of a sick, confused and frustrated preschooler. As a result, I've compiled a list of 10 things worse than listening to a sick preschooler cry:

  1.  
  2.  
  3.  
  4.  
  5.  
  6.  
  7.  
  8.  
  9.  
  10.  

 

Yea. That about sums it up.
