That Kid

Foolish me...Woke up with such high hopes for the day. It was forecasted to be 60 degrees for the first time in months, so I packed up the boys and we walked to school for the first time since December. We were laughing, having fun. Got home, put Dylan down for his nap and was about to go to the garage to get the bikes ready for an afternoon ride when I got the call.
Whittier School.
Nurses Office.
Colin had puked in the classroom.
All over the coveted reading rug.
Like a lot.
So, Nanny 911 to the rescue (because of course Jason is out of town) and I go to pick up my bug, who did such a great job of being brave and not crying until I walked in the door and he immediately fell to pieces as you can only do in front of your Mom.

My heart broke for him, is Colin now "that kid," we all know the one, who puked in class?

Devastating

He is not "that kid" unless he pee's in his pants. I still remember when Cara S. peed in her pants in 4th grade, and the girl in HS had to transfer after pooping on the gym floor. No-one will remember puking in kindergarten. Although, it might hurt his chances for CITIZEN OF THE YEAR!

I can still remember Candi Haase who maliciously poured glue all over Jamey Pick's shoes under the table, but can't remember all the kids that puked in school. Although I do remember frequent spots covered with kitty litter on the carpet where kids puked.

I hope Candi Haase or Jamey Pick google's there name to find it on this blog!
