Please Mommy, make it stop.

This kid is breaking my heart. She acts perfectly fine during the day, with the little exception that it's a bit more difficult to go down for a nap. Once about 5:00pm hits, which during the week is right after we get home, Grace lets us know just how terrible she's feeling. She gets super fussy, rubs the back of her head and pulls on her ears. All she wants to do is hang on me and cry. I just keep promising her it will only be a little longer and her ears won't hurt anymore. I wish there was more I could do for her. We've been talking to more people about tubes, everyone is assuring us that once it's over, she'll fell 100% better. I can't wait until this is over, so she isn't so miserable. The only thing that helps is rocking her with her chewy. BTW her chewy is a little security blanket with tags all around it.
