I love being a mom. Okay MOST of the time I love being a mom. Last night was not one of those times. Kevin woke up 5 times last night. Twice to get a drink (he insists I come with him to the kitchen) then diapers changes, then ostomy dumping and then back to bed and grinding of the teeth. ( Kevins teeth not mine) Up again at 2 AM to check out the room and toys. Then about 3 AM he gives me the uh uh signal that his ostomy bag is leaking. I get up and get him to the bathroom and cover him in orange ostomy tape and hope it holds a few hours. He runs out of the bathroom and gets into our bed and snuggles by Ron. Four AM I feel something wet and assume Kevin is really sweating. No such luck! Yes the tape slid off and ostomy stuff (okay poop) is all over my sheets. We do the bathroom thing again and this time I change the ostomy completely and put him in his bed and I clean up. Another fun night of mommyhood. Its not fun when it is happening but I really do laugh about it later. We need to see the humor in our lives otherwise we would be crying way too much. Do I hear a AMEN???
