E1 woke up and declared that his tummy hurt
We, his ever vigilant and sympathetic parents, shrugged it off.
We took him more seriously when he said he was OK with staying home and having a nap in the afternoon
We took him even more seriously when he told us the story of Mikey, a boy in his class, who didn't make it to the garbage can yesterday and spit all over himself and his daddy had to come and get him because he didn't have a change of clothes
The deal was sealed at 10:05 am, when he projectile vomited all over the hardwood, his socks, a teddy bear, a skipping rope, and his dad's old Optimus Prime.
For good measure, he repeated the performance while I was out walking Sir Winston. This time, all over the couch, where his sister had very thoughtfully removed the protective blanket to keep it safe.
Next time, I think I'll just take his word for it.
