mother of the year

"You just watch, he's gonna get to school and throw up."

I should have never uttered those words to Stick this morning, because now they have come to pass.

I'll just let that sink in a little.

"Mother of the Year Award" for me!   In my defense, we've had a LOT of crying wolf, supposedly sick kids, who in reality just want to stay home and watch tv all day.  AND, for at least an hour this morning he was goofing off with Proto, happy, happy, happy, making so much noise in the basement I had to go down and shush them.  Shortly after that, he came upstairs long faced, and siiiiick.  I didn't believe him and sent him off to school with the instructions to "have a good attitude and you'll feel better!"  Exactly 45 minutes later came the fated phone call,  Rooney's feeble voice on the other end, "Mooooom, I just threw up at school, can  you come get me???????"

So proud!
