Merry Christmas

I probably have the only 5-year-old who is still asleep at 10:45 on Christmas morning. Sweet Daughter was up all night. Vomit, drink Gatorade, sleep for 30 minutes, lather, rinse, repeat. She’s already mastered a key college skill of woofing into the garbage can without actually having to get out of bed. I’m so proud.


I was thinking that Mary was up all night on Christmas Eve, too. Being a parent is tough, but at least I’m not responsible for the freakin’ Son of God.

Around 5:00 this morning, whatever demon that was possessing her decided to exit her body rather abruptly at both ends. She’s been sleeping ever since. I think it’s time to check for a pulse.

  1. Poor thing, not a fun way to celebrate Christmas. Hope the rest of the day goes a little smoother for both of you.

  2. Yeah, that's tough. Watching your young children be sick is bad enough, much less having to do it on Christmas day. I hope things get better for your family.

  3. Having a sick little on on Christmas is no fun. Hope she was able to sleep it off and feel better.
