A Recent Conversation with Gavin...

In the middle of the night, Gavin came into my room and said, "Mommy, my tummy hurts." I said, "Do you think you might need to throw up." Gavin said, "Maybe." So, I told Gavin to go get a bowl just in case to keep by his bed.
Ten minutes later Gavin came back into my room and in a very distressed voice said, "Mommy, I think I messed up. I got the bowl with the holes in it." He had accidentally grabbed the strainer bowl to throw up in. Whoops. Luckily, as it turned out, the bowl wasn't needed anyway -- thank goodness -- that could have been an especially bad mess for me to clean up!
