Levi got the flu on Saturday and ran a fever 3 days. He has since made a recovery and only has a cough, snot, and an attitude problem left to show for it. Mommy is starting to wonder where my sweet, well behaved, angel has gone and who this devil child is in his place. We've been living in meltdown city all week and I'm ready to move now. He has fits about EVERYTHING and bonus, he isn't sleeping very well either. He wakes up several times through out the night and yells until you come and tell him to lay back down. He also refuses to eat more then two bites of anything. (If you've ever seen him eat you know what a drastic change this is.)
I'm trying to believe that this is temporary and once he's completely over the sickness things will go back to normal but I'm starting to wonder. I do this every time he gets sick or has a bad week I start to think it's going to be permanent change. So far that hasn't been the case and I pray that this isn't the time. Part of me thinks we have just been way to lucky with how good a kid he has always been. I'm hoping it's not time to pay the piper for all of that good behavior.
Thanks for reading.

He'll bounce back. I always chalk some of the negative behavior up to all of the "spoiling" my children got when they were sick too...hang in there!
i hope he bounces back. but from experience...... sometimes they have these phases and sometimes they last way to stinking long! he will get through it and hopefully you will be able to hold on while the ride is a little bumpy, it will get smoother:)
