Little kids get sick a lot. A whole lot. It messes with them. Recently, Qais spent another couple of days with his head down on our shoulder, sleeping as much as he could. It appeared to be a combination between a viral infection and some heavy teething. Along with that came a high fever and heavy congestion. My wife tells me he was snoring like I do when I’m having a bad night. Window shaking.

He’s mostly better – up and playing again, and sleeping better. Which means we get better quality time with him during the day, and better time to ourselves at night when he’s sleeping. I hope this means I’ll catch up on some of my photography and writing projects.
