All four of us were slammed by it. <BR/><BR/>All night long I lay down on the hall floor between the kids' rooms so that I could be equal distance from them to empty their buckets, and from the bathroom for when I needed to throw up. lol it was brutal!!! <BR/><BR/>I feel your pain...Jeanne Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12096040179637686179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5395166533939958460.post-80350652713943162552008-11-13T13:46:00.000-08:002008-11-13T13:46:00.000-08:00EVen sick, he is just beautiful.EVen sick, he is just beautiful.Mommy Mohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02253085170545717474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5395166533939958460.post-79932075310948175282008-11-13T05:37:00.000-08:002008-11-13T05:37:00.000-08:00Oh, I remember those nights.

We actually had a date night with a little too much drinking going on to deal as well as you did. My hat's off to you and a quick recovery by all.Kirstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10304497617228725441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5395166533939958460.post-67911405528136990722008-11-12T19:17:00.000-08:002008-11-12T19:17:00.000-08:00Good God!

Also helpful when they can actually make it to the toilet (though I am almost as happy for the linoleum). Mine never want me to read, though, just to lay there. <BR/><BR/>I am waiting for that shoe to drop here. We made it through Halloween, which was the first bout last year. And maybe all the times we were sick last year built up some immunity for this one (stop laughing, I need a little hope here!). <BR/><BR/>Here's to being needed by our boys!
