I went to retrieve Leina from her nap the other day and she greeted me with those dreaded words…..

“Mommy,” she lamented, “I don’t feel so good.”

With a bit of concern, I asked “What hurts honey?”

“My belly hurts,” Leina replied and began rubbing her tummy.

I began to flash back to our four day vomit fest and dread filled me. Where had we been? What had she eaten? How could we survive a stomach bug with Kulia?

“I think I need some ice cream to make it feel better,” Leina continued with a totally straight face.

I managed to contain my giggles at this pronouncement. I was, however, so happy to hear that this stomach ache could be remedied that I gave in and let her have ice cream before dinner.

What a little actress.
