Gosh, that was a severe migraine I had yesterday – gargantuan headache, nausea and vomiting five times in the process. I didn’t eat lunch and dinner even if I was a bit hungry. I was indisposed when my daughter’s family came over for a visit. Except for the grandson, they had a scheduled visit to our family dentist who lives near our place. Nate had his dental prophylaxis in another clinic a week ago.
The moment Nate stepped inside the gate, he showed his two hands wearing black glove on his right hand, a finger less glove on his other hand and one foot with dark sock. “I am a ninja Nonna“, he said. I laughed. He brought his toy train set with him but without battery. They left him here for a few hours and he just played with his toys while I had my eyes closed the whole time. He had nobody to talk to and next time I opened my eyes, he was asleep still holding the plastic train tracks in his hands.
He is afraid of our cats but he kept looking at the newborn kittens inside the box. He said they look like mice and wanted to bring them home. They are just a week old though.
Daughter said “you can’t bring them home, they are too small yet and need to be breastfed from their mom”.
“Let’s give them milk”, he innocently answered. The wisdom of a four-year old.
It is always a thrill to have him around. He kept urging me to go to the comfort room when I said that I felt nauseous. “Just rest Nonna”. I believe that kids nowadays are more solicitous. Even my daughter says that she is sometimes amazed by the words that he utters, deep thoughts that make one simply wonder. Truly amazing.
Have a nice week ahead everyone!
