sickness

After the busy-ness of the home school play and then activity day at VGR, I thought i was finally going to get a break. Boy was I wrong.

Saturday afternoon, Glorianna started throwing up. It wasn’t just every now and then either. It was about once and hour. It continued on into the night (of which I had hardly any sleep). I spent the entire night in the recliner with her. Since she continued to throw up every couple of hours, what little bit of sleep i did get made me very zombie like the next morning.

Sunday morning, Azariah woke up crying. He just kept saying “owww” and that his stomach hurt. He wasn’t up for 10 minutes when he was throwing up as well. (sigh)

Trevor took Zion and went to church. He had to teach Sunday School for the 10-15 yr olds, so he was already obligated to be there. I stayed home with the other 2. So with 2 kids throwing up and hardly any sleep to speak of, I wasn’t about to battle this bug by myself. So I had to call in reinforcements…aka…my mom. She played Good Samaritan and came over to help out while Trevor and Zion were at church.

By Sunday night, Azariah was feeling much better and was able to keep down liquids and a piece of toast. By Monday morning he was back to normal.

Glorianna on the other hand had the worst of it. She couldn’t even keep fluids down. She didn’t start to improve until Monday afternoon. She still didn’t want to eat, but at least kept fluids down at this point. By Tuesday , she was eating again and now all is back to normal…I hope…
