My morning started, as they all do, with Jack stirring early. I dragged myself out of bed, changed his diaper, and because this weather is still so stinking hot I thought it would be smart to let him skip the clothes for now.
We went downstairs, he in his cowprint diaper and me in my pajamas, and I made a pot of coffee. I fired up my laptop so I could read the morning news while feeding Jack, as I always do, and I set Jack on my lap. He ate happily for a few minutes and then...then I felt it. A very wet, hot spot, spreading onto my lap. It actually took my brain a few moments to process what was happening.
I refastened his diaper, set him on the floor and ran to the bathroom like I was on fire, listening to Jack wail as I washed up. He quickly discovered his toys and was totally unconcerned about his interrupted breakfast, so I took the opportunity to dress for work before returning to finish Jack's breakfast.
And then he barfed on me. On my work clothes, my shirt and pants. I was covered. Jack, on the other hand, seemed rather pleased. He actually laughed.
Jack, I've said it before and I'll say it again: it is a good thing you are cute.
