A Little (Unpleasant) Taste of Motherhood

We kept our 4 year old god daughter Elizabeth last night. Normally when we keep her, it is a relatively fun experience. Last night was no exception, until after we put her to bed, she got horribly sick and proceeded to throw up for the next 3 hours. I have never seen anyone vomit so much. Eventually we had to call her parents, who came and picked her up about 1 am. We are not entirely sure what caused the vomiting, but think it was just a really nasty bug. I am going to call her parents today and see how she is doing. I hope she doesn't equate coming to Auntt CC and Uncle Gregg's house with profuse projectile vomiting. We would love for her to come back again, just without hte vomiting. Today I have a ton of laundry to do (in addition to the 2 loads of sheets, comforters, towels, and nightgowns I did last night) and a bunch of cleaning to get the house back to normal. I don't know how you Moms do it. My hat is off to you.
