The flu is out of control right now. It kicked off 3 weeks ago with Levi. Tiny man barfed several times over the course of two days.
Adam got it next. Spurred into action by a six flags ride, the flu caught us unprepared. 4 stops just on the way to the car.
Then a week and a half goes by. Life is quiet. There are no midnight sheet changes. No Pedialite administering needed. Caleb was the lucky one.
I know it isn't only Sacramento. Parker got it 3 hours away. Stupid bug hitch-hiked to Susanville.
Next Jaden. Puke and poop. Poor baby still has it. Most get it for 24 hours. Jaden has had it for 6 people now.
Caleb finally succumbs. A new element greets us. Diarrhea. Yes, the brown monster rears it's runny head.
The circle comes to a close with Adam. Since beginning this post I've been called away twice to pat his back and whisper comfort. He's a tough man. He told me he had it and I could go clean up. Thanks. Guess he's a puke master by now.
I'm exhausted and my babies are all dehydrated. They can't afford the weight they are losing.
Full circle is where things usually end right?
