The throw up bug!

We are getting a good practice run in for Chad.  Between the 7 members of our family, we have been throwing up for about 2 weeks.  Sadly at the end of the sickness, James decided to look up on the CDC website what virus we actually had.  Turns out the NORO virus is sweeping through North America, and the thing that makes it so 'viral' is that a person is contagious 3 days after they stop having symptoms.  Hmmm, I guess that means all the people at church that we saw, and all the kids at day camp, and all the students we greeted, and so on will soon be getting acquainted with the NORO virus as well.  Oops.  Thankfully the last person to have it (Noa) seems to be getting better, and hopefully we are all on the mend...unless someone has a relapse, which is not unheard of.  I'm not sure why, but it seems that James always gets in the worst situations with kids throwing up.  One time he was in a really nice optical store when one of our kids threw up everywhere.  This round, he had the kids with him when Hali threw up in Sunday school, and then Wal-mart.  And finally, on the way to the airport to pick us up (a mere 2 hour drive) Chaya threw up in the car, and Hali threw up because of the overwhelming smell...only 15 minutes outside of the city limits.  He was contemplating what he would say if the boarder patrol asked to search his car.  Thankfully they crossed with no problems, and found a gas station to clean everyone up and arrived right on time to pick us up.
Well, if we are learning anything, we are learning how to laugh about throw up!  Here is a video filmed here in Quebec to get you laughing too!
