Today we were not scheduled to go to our playgroup's pumpkin patch story hour time slot at my church. Well, I guess it's not only my church but I'm the only one in the playgroup who actually goes to this church. I have been super excited for days and days to show off my church and I also LOVE pumpkin season--that's what I call it and I even write it on my calendar as just that.
Today we do not have the stomach virus and I was most certainly not way more bummed than the kids that we wouldn't be able to go see our friends. I was not so bummed that I kept trying to rationalize in my head how we could still go. I did not eventually give up in defeat. A few hours and three million trips to the bathroom later I did not log on to facebook only to see that pumpkin patch had been canceled for today due to weather. I did not shriek with glee that I would not miss this! I am much more adult than that. I would never be so excited with something so silly.
My oldest child is not living in the bath today so that when he vomits or has a bowel movement it doesn't make a huge mess. My middle child is not basically fending for himself today as shown by the fact that he did not come into my room holding a half loaf of raisin nut bread. oh well, at least it's homemade. My youngest child is not sitting next to me on the bed taking all the wipes out of the container.
We do not have to leave at 4:30 in the morning tomorrow to go to Corpus. I am not dreading this trip more than I have any other.
