When He's Sick, He Can't Run Away From Me!

There aren't many benefits of having a sick kid . . . but one of them is that he's too tired/wiped out to run away from me when I try to talk to him.

He's spent most of his time on the couch . . . reading, watching TV, talking on the phone, texting on his phone . . . When Tim and Morgan are not home, there are times when he's been bored enough to actually let me sit next to him on the couch (and NOT run away!) when we're having a snack or lunch. Sometimes, we actually hold a civilized conversation . . . one which does not end with one of us stomping away in anger or frustration.

I hope this lasts beyond his illness . . .
