Ok—so the Mayor started running a fever Thursday night.
And since it continued through the night and remained elevated and steady
despite baby Motrin, her top two chief Atlanta aides made the call that she was
homebound as well as doctor bound Friday.
So naturally, the chief aide in Woobooville’s satellite office, moi, came up Friday
to assist.
The pediatrician babbled something about Fifth’s disease…again…or was it Roseola?
It seems we’re running out of viruses and thus have started to lose count.
Hence the now numerical listing of viruses…but really, I’m thinking we’re up to
something like 25 by now.
Thus the Mayor opted to drown her sorrows in the consumption of copious amounts of beverage…
Oh, and did I mention that we are right at the 39-week mark for the new sheriff???
So this is what my daughter-n-law is feeling at this point…
But my son keeps saying, “but sweetie, you’re simply glowing…”
My son insisted that we venture to an old school Atlanta vestige Italian restaurant…
a 30 year old establishment that has actually been featured in renowned
foodie magazines such as Bon Appetit.
We made the trek north of the city, almost to Dobbins Air Force Base Friday evening just
so my daughter-n-law could partake in a plate of their miraculous Eggplant Parmagian.
A dish that is a near guarantee to send any and all expectant mothers to be into labor.
If within 48 hours of consumption a mom goes into labor, the baby’s picture joins the
hundreds of pictures lining the walls and the family receives a $100 gift card.
My son practically forced her to eat every last bite.
It seems this did not work on the Mayor’s arrival…
but this new Sheriff might just be different.
However, the Mayor is simply having none of it…as the thought of a new sheriff in town
is more than a bit disconcerting to her Mayorial role.
Stay tuned…
So excited for you! Keep up the good work there Ms Mayor… hope all fevers subside before the new Sheriff arrives!
How blessed you are! Adorable photos!
It is worth the drive to the restaurant. Praying for a safe and healthy delivery.
Oh that kid is so cute and her eyelashes look almost fake. Think of all those viruses as building a terrific immune system. This kid is going to rock the world, along with the new sheriff in town.
I know right—I wish I just had her eyebrows 🙂
She is the cutest snuggle bug! And that picture of the pregnant cat – or whatever – hilarious! Fun post. Waiting with you for the Sheriff’s arrival. 😀
🙂 I’ts one of those hariless cats—I can’t stop laughing–my daughter-n-law however is no longer laughing 🙂 ha!!
I understand. 😀

the little Mayor thanks GW 🙂
GW is honored 🌷😁🍪🐛
We too have another grandchild imminent Julie …
Now David— you’ve got me beat as your brood is certainly larger but I swear my two will be my undoing— I’m getting too old for this!!!
That I understand. We had two overnight last Sunday and then all day Monday. No work got done that day. This next one will be James and Katy’s second. They live 200 miles from us but Katy’s parents are close at hand and Beth is even closer.
Auntie Beth to the rescue!!!!☺️
Except that she is 250 miles away at the moment serving on children’s team at Spring Harvest! And has already lost her voice apparently.
Well she has some time remaining— when is the due date?
Ours is the end of April/ first of May— but I have a feeling sooner than later so my bags stay packed and we’re there the next two weekends anyway — but the Mayor is a wild one and her little world is about to be rocked!!!!
Due tomorrow Julie! And they moved house last week. Their version of the mayor is 23 months – his world is about to change too!
So many mayors and little sheriffs
I hope the Mayor is doing better! She’s so cute! Can’t wait to see pictures of the Sheriff!
Your wit and wisdom make even seemingly mundane events a delight! So sorry about the “mayor” being sick again! You are all in my thoughts and prayers! ❤ ❤
