never fails

it never ceases to amaze me that we can never go on a trip without at least one child getting sick.

tuesday we woke up, and both michael and shannon were complaining of tummy aches. before we could even leave the rest stop, both of them had thrown up. we got things ready to go, and made sure they both had bags to use if necessary.

michael didn't make it to the bag until the 4th or 5th time.

6 hours later, michael was coming out the other end! we stopped at least twice so that i wouldn't have an absolute mess in the car that would have made the rest of us sick.

we'd been at my parents for about 2 hours, and shannon barfed all over grandmas bedroom floor.

i am praying that the return trip is much quieter.
