Brown Eyes, Blue Eyes, Green Eyes, Pink Eyes

yep, we think that we got pink eye. eyes. Yesterday when Quincy woke up from his afternoon nap he had "matter" (which to me looked like snot and dried up snot) in, on, around his eyes. I didn't think much of it because the whites of his eyes were all clear. I read about pink eye when I got home and decided that it was probably not pink eye but that I needed to call the doctor office anyway because it was probably an infection and he would need treatment. They wanted us to come in. The diagnosis is: don't know. Really. They said it could be from a cold or ear infection. He does have a cold, but not an ear infection. So then we were down to cold or infection. So, we got eye drops. Expensive eye drops, to treat an infection. I don't know if this will cover all infections, including pink eye. The doctors are sometimes so fast and I don't think of questions until after I leave. Then tonight John noticed some PINK in Quincy's eye. So, I don't know if we have pink eye, I'm sure that we will know soon enough. Poor guy has so many uncontrollable bodily secretions (on his face alone). Mucus from the eye, mucus from the nose, tears, lots and lots of slobber! And sometimes up and out comes formula! So, we are doing lots of laundry around here and washing our hands, and cuddling. That is the sweetest thing. And I also decided that Quincy being sick made me sit and just look at him, appreciate him, reflect on how special he is to me. We sat for the longest time tonight just looking at each other. I was holding him and he was restless from not feeling well. You just can't look into the eyes of your child and not thank God for his grace and mercy and love. Thank you God. I'm blessed beyond measure, more than I can ever deserve.
