Last week was a tough one. Poppy was hit hard with her first cold of the season and as you can see from the above photos she was not emotionally prepared to deal with the havoc a cold can have on a little one’s spirit.

*note: I’m sure some of you are thinking why wasn’t I hugging her while she was crying like this…why didn’t I put the camera down! Well these tears were close to constant during the first few days of the cold. Poppy was crying over every little thing. She cried when she was thirsty. She cried when she wanted an orange. She cried when her sleeve was bunched up. She cried when I zipped up her sweater, and when I unzipped it. These tears I believe were because she desperately wanted a tissue but when given the tissue she wanted nothing to do with it. I couldn’t win so I snapped a few pics then promptly went back to cuddling her.
