Will went to school cause he did not throw up since Friday. Autumn was feeling better but threw up last nite about 6. Tara ran in to help her and grabbed the first thing to use as a bucket she could - that big plastic bin of crayons, pens, colored pencils etc. that we have had hanging around for a few years now. So I run up to help and Autumn is hanging over this box of writing and drawing implements full of her barf (she is sitting on her floor) and I start rubbing her back and telling her its ok and after about 30 seconds of that i ask "are you ok now?" and she says matter-of-factly (with her face still in the box) "yeah, but I'm not gonna be if I have to keep looking at this!" So I get her up and on the way to her bathroom and I pick up the box of stuff and holding it up I look at Tara and frown as if "what to do with this?" She just hands me the lid without a word as if to say "put the lid on and throw it away!" So I snapped that lid on and put the whole thing in the garage trash and "Bobs you're uncle!" Easiest puke clean up of the year. So that is the end of that box of coloring stuff. Do you know the bin I am referring to? Anyway, that is just one of the many barf/diarrhea/poop adventures of the last week!
"Good times, noodle salad"
Love you,

Love it, too funny! We had a year where we were all sick and vomiting. Well, there weren't too many of our official puke bowl to go around, so I grabbed those buckets that Carl's Jr. gives out on Halloween (we had saved a bunch of them to use for small toys) and we all had our own personal puke buckets with a handle and a lid! Throwing up sucks, I hope it's gone from your household for a long time! Just don't send it over here!
