It's Official

I'm officially in the club. The motherhood club, that is. Tonight I underwent the all-important "clean the tub after your sick child has diarrhea all over it" ritual. And I only dry-heaved once.

Do I get to learn the secret handshake now?

Oh Janelle. I'm sorry. Those are the things about motherhood that make you say 'really? this is supposed to be the glorious calling of my life???'

Yes, but did you use gloves or go bare-handed? This will determine your status in our club.
One year we lost two rugs and a futon mattress to a poop virus. Good times.
Hope he's feeling better soon.

As soon as your kid tries to eat the poop, I'll teach you the handshake.
