Tummy troubles

I sit here in the middle of the night typing because my boyo is having tummy troubles. Yuck, a dreaded stomach virus! On Friday night, I was up in the night violently ill, but because we had been out to eat that night, my first thought was food poisoning. Because this is China and sometimes that just happens. But now that I reflect on it, nope, probably not. Josh and I have moved down to the couches to camp out for the night. He sleeps on the top bunk and we have recently put up the mosquito nets. That combo is not so conducive to crazy quick bathroom trips. I won't go into anymore details, but let me just say this: I am so glad that when he told me his stomach hurt before bed that I insisted he sleep with a bucket in his bed. I don't always have them, but that was a moment of brilliance. I can only hope that if the girls are going to get sick that they do it before I leave town. Not something I would wish on anyone. But I love that little guy so much that cleaning up tonight's mess just doesn't seem like a big deal.
