It's not just because he's been sick, it's just his newest trend. Gusi now has Mama-itis: an acute onset of needing to be in his Mama's arms without warning but with plenty of screaming. He needs to see me at all times, has to have me next to him at a moment's notice and will throw a fit if I'm not around. The tide has changed. PapaGus has been dethroned. I think he's going through what I was going through a few months ago: feeling like you've been tossed away like an old shoe. Gusi only wants to sit in my lap. If his father tries to set his hand down on my arm or Gusi's leg, Gusi shoves it off and protests. His mama. Only.
While this was cute for a few days, it is now most definitely not. I am not even permitted to go to the bathroom by myself and my showers have moved to night time after he's gone to bed so I can shower in peace. We've been like this for a few weeks and it looks like it will be a while longer. I really think getting out and about after these days of illness and weeks without transportation will help matters. I hope the dealership doesn't take too long with our car.
