Room Sick

Evan’s gotten quite car sick on our long drives and trips lately. The working remedy seems to be to give him a strong mint or gum. Ella always wants some too, though we don’t like her to have it cause she always swallows it, but she begs us for it none the less. She’s recently started saying she’s carsick too, or that her tummy hurts to get some.

So the other day I was chewing on some gum while talking in the living room, when Ella comes up to me and says she wants some gum cause she’s carsick. I tell her she’s tricking me and that it’s not true, so she says “No, I mean, I’m room-sick!”

Tricky little thing.

Darren asks me if I was like that when I was little. Now what would make him ask a thing like that?
