please. please, no.

got a call from big h's school today saying he had been complaining of a tummy ache and they asked if i could come get him. he asked the teacher if he could "skip yunch and go straight to my mat?"

i know.

and so he did. and i went to pick him up. and poor little guy was in the office looking so pitiful.

i asked what sounded good for the rest of the afternoon. and his response? "mama, i tink it would be goodest to put my syeeping bag on the couch, yay in it, eat a rek-pest bar, and watch mr. incyedible so i can rest. i rest rea-yee good when i watch mr. incyedible." spoken from a true patient.

so little man resides on the couch, with his breakfast bar, his sleeping bag, and the television tuned into the incredibles.

please do not let this be the beginning of the stomach bug. please.

and to think that the morning at school started off so great.

Oh, we've been dealing with sickness in our house this last week and I'm ready for it to be done. I REALLY hope it is not the stomach flu. Bless that Big H heart!

LOVE the new look, by the way!!
