It's a "Great" Day to be a Mom!

Well, today was an experience that I hope never happens again! I was putting on my make-up before church and Emma came in holding her stomach telling me that it hurt! I didn't really think too much about it (she says that a lot!). We got ready for church and she was acting very sleepy! I told her she could lay on me and take a nap during Sacrament meeting and I would wake her up for class! Jon thought maybe we should keep her home and even said, "I hope she doesn't throw up at church!" (Maybe next time I'll listen to my insightful husband!) Emma really wanted to go to class today. We missed last week because she and Jon were sick! She was almost asleep in the car when we got to church so I carried her in. She just laid on my shoulder. We had been sitting for about 10 seconds when I felt something warm on my shoulder! I looked down and Emma was throwing up! I scooped her up and ran out of the chapel trying to have her throw up on me instead of all over the church! We ran outside and she finished in the rocks! It was all over the front and back of me, down my dress in my hair and all over Emma! Someone came outside with a roll of paper towels for us, (he was so kind) and I started trying to clean up! Jon then came outside and said he tried his best to clean it up off the bench with baby wipes, but that Derrick started rolling in it! GREAT! So, now I have 2 kids and myself that have throw up all over us! And it happened in the chapel! Everyone who was walking into church stopped and offered to help, but there really wasn't much for them to do! I was grateful for the kindness though! Poor Emma! We came home and took a shower and she fell asleep with in 5 minutes of laying down! She has now been sleeping for almost 2 1/2 hours! It's getting late, but I don't want to wake her! Hopefully it is just a one time deal! She's not really my throw up child...that would be Derrick! So, that was my exciting Sunday! Jon went back to church after helping me get things cleaned up at home and I sent him with a rag and some cleaner to clean the bench where it all started and to make sure there wasn't a trail on the carpet! I'm lucky and thankful to have a husband who didn't mind doing that! Hopefully, I can show my face in church again and not be completely humiliated!
