Can a child be too content

Maddie is home sick today with the stomach flu.

To ensure our child's happiness, Piper set her up with 6 ounces of her favorite drink (Fresca...) and a DVD of her favorite movie. She then perched Maddie on our bed to watch the movie.

Maddie was sooooo happy to be surrounded by such goodness that she didn't tell Piper that she'd thrown up again until the movie was over.

Piper is now off to the laundromat to ensure that we have clean sheets tonight.

OK, my first thought was YUCK! Fresca! Double yuck!! But then I reconsidered and thought, well - it's easier to clean up when you have the stomach flu.

Ew. Hope all worked out well and that our Fresca loving Maddie is feeling better now.

Bless you guys!

Little tales like this one make me so happy! As Uncle George is fond of saying, "thank God it wasn't my child."
