OK - maybe not as monumental as Aunt Janet's but geesh...
Next paragraph - not for the weak of tummy...
Alyx had to be picked up from school due to a stomach ache. She was fine until we had to take AJ to work. We aren't in the van 2 minutes before she decides she is going to be sick. Now, I was not prepared for this. I grabbed a to-go cup that was left from my morning soda and handed that back to her. Keep in mind, Alyx is my girly-girl. Everyone in this family is serious when it comes to vomiting. Not Alyx. She held this little cup - and everything went into it. She asked for a napkin - and she was done? What was that? How can anyone be delicate while vomiting????
Long day in Lincoln. Mellisa's volleyball team played there so I thought it would be fun to go down early and spend some time with Kiel. Kiel, Nequan and mom spent quality time shopping in Walmart for Guitar Hero. This was exactly how I pictured our time?!?!
Mellisa's team won - and Messie played great! Halfway thru the game - text from Chris. Kiel lost his phone - thinks it is in the car.
After the game (now 8:30), Messie and I find the phone (she opted out of the bus). But - Kiel is at practice. So we sit and wait. The Loyola coach was there to watch Kiel so I talked to him for a bit. He wants tape of Mellisa. We joked that it would be funny if both Turpin kids ended up at Loyola. Kiel would rather die first. Finally, Kiel comes out about 9:15ish during a break.
Mellisa gets a text - the team forgot the 'lucky' poster at the gym. Fantastic. Back to the gym. Managed to get in - custodians had just started cleaning. Messie is the team hero for the night...
Finally, stopped by McD's - and drove home. I think it was about 10:30. Yea - waaaaay past my bedtime...
You win. Sick children trump all.
