We had a full day planned. Right now I should be headed to church with my parents. I'm not. I'm here posting this quick thought...there is no vacation from motherhood. I'll post more about where we've been and what we've been doing in a future post, but today, I'm not on vacation anymore. Today, I'm caring for a vomiting child. All plans out the window, in a flash...down the toilet, literally. Don't get me wrong, I don't resent my little one for being sick. He can't help it, he'd rather be off having a good time too. To be very southern, shall I say, Bless his heart! I feel so bad for him, begging for more food and drink, not understanding why I'm "neglecting" his most basic needs.
Motherhood is indeed the job with no vacation but tons of sick time...caring for others who are sick.

Oh no. That is a sad way to spend your vacation time- for both of you. :( Tell him we hope he feels better SOON.
