My Ryan is BACK and so am I!!!!

I don't even know how to express my week last week other than saying CHALLENGING!! I was seriously thinking about heading back to work as it would be much easier than staying home and losing my mind. Ryan has had a cold for a good two weeks and on top of that he was getting his last bottom eye tooth. My normally easy going good natured child was a bear to deal with and it tested every bit of patience I had. He wanted to be held, but didn't want to be held, he wouldn't eat much of anything all of last week which of course as a parent disturbed and frustrated me, he wouldn't play for more than one second without running to me and clinging to my leg and whining. I felt bad for the little guy as his nose was runny, he was sneezy and just didn't feel well but I am human although my children and sometimes my husband think I have an endless ability to tolerate insanity. I felt I was becoming insane so thankfully Ryan awoke on Monday morning to his usual cheerful,funny self. The last few days have been so peaceful (I am comparing it to last we so that doesn't say much) and I actually am enjoying being stay at home mommy again. It was a close one though I have to say, working at McDonald's was sounding pretty good at one point so you know I was close to losing my mind!!!!
