10 days and counting...

Today is only my second day of self quarantine after finding out I have sore eyes and another kind of virus in my left eye.  According to the doctor I am contagious so I should be careful in what and whom I come in contact with.  That includes my baby girl.

The isolation in itself is not so bad.  Its being away from Dani that hurts.  When the doctor mentioned 10 days away from her, I was holding back my tears.  That was not what I had in mind.  

So now I talk and watch Dani eat her breakfast through the glass door.  She keeps calling me and wanting me to hold and carry her.  "Mommy!  Mommy!"  I get tears in my eyes each time.  I have to tell her I'm sick.  She can say the word sick but has no idea what that means as of yet.

This morning, while she was having her breakfast she quickly jumped off her seat and tried to open the glass door.  She was pushing and pulling as hard as she could.  All I could do was sit there and try to cheer her up.  This is the hardest part.

I also get to watch her through the video camera Bryan installed in her room.  But it only makes my heart ache even more.

Counting the days, hours and minutes until I'm out and she is the first one I'm going to.
