gravity is a funny thing. or not so funny if your name is jasper.
monday night sebastian reported that he wasn’t feeling well. i would have figured that out myself…the old half mast eyes were glassy and the forehead was getting hot. and his gorgeous little back, covered in the occasional freckle.
poor little fellow. i have him some motrin and he settled down. his father wasn’t in town, which upset sebastian more than it usually would have done. he wrestled in his sleep with special blanket and moved around a lot during the night.
especially at one point during the night, when sebastian woke up and decided that he felt like he was going to vomit. he was very very tired, but he managed to lift his torso and turn his head over the side of his bed and vomit.
the problem is, of course, that sebastian sleeps on a bunkbed, and jasper’s bed juts out underneath sebastian’s. and good old gravity demanded that vomit that came out of sebastian’s mouth head downwards straight on to jasper’s bed.
what a dissgossting way to wake up. being vomited on.
can you imagine? poor little jude.

The poor things – Seb for feeling so awful and Jasper for getting vomit all over him. Too gross
I feel so badly for both.. I hope JJ slept through the event and that Sebbie is feeling better.
Oh!! That happened to mine, except Coralie puked wall side – can you imagine?!
Well, I hope Seb feels better soon!
Oh, man. I laughed at this post when I read it last night, and told my husband about it, and we both laughed. I guess that was tempting fate! Just half an hour later, our lower-bunk daughter appeared to tell us that the upper-bunk daughter needed us to come right away. Yes, poor M was crying and feeling horrible. I just managed to talk her down from the top bunk and into the bathroom in time to get very sick. We had to camp out overnight with her in the livingroom, on the watch for further episodes. We both eventually got some restless sleep, after 2:00 a.m.
I am glad our kids are almost 8 years old now, sometimes able to identify the warning signs and call for help before the worst happens – at least we were lucky last night. And M seems to be on the mend today, just very tired.
I am so sorry for both Sebastian and Jasper, and hope they are both feeling much better now! And I hope the trio will escape the virus!
