Sleepovers Are Fun…In Theory
They’re fun when you’re a kid, not so much when you’re the grown-up hosting said function.
We’ve got four kids, plus three that aren’t mine, one of whom is currently running a fever and threatening to throw up, probably on one of the other children. I signed up for feeding extra children, I sprung for the hot dogs, I made rice krispie treats, I’ve got a sweet breakfast spread planned. It’s all good. Cleaning foreign puke, well, that’s not part of the bargain, especially when there’s a possibility it’s contagious.
We’re supposed to be bowling tomorrow, to celebrate my daughter’s tenth birthday, hopefully it will be barf free. Right now kids are still stirring, I can’t even get my thoughts together, and those rice krispie treats are calling me. More tomorrow.
