We were excited because Trooper Long didn't have to work on the big day and our original plans of having Christmas "morning" at 4 pm was gladly changed. But when Jameson lay on the couch crying to return to his bed, well, a day with a belated Christmas morning seemed pretty benign.
So here's just a couple of facts I recently learned about the stomach flu...
1. The flu shot does not guard against the stomach flu. There are around 7 strains of influenza and the flu shot helps with about 3 of these.
2. The "old" stomach flu would last about 24 hours. The new super strain lasts around 4 days. So in other words, this is not your Grandma's flu.
3. I don't remember body aches being that bad. Seriously, am I just a wimp now?
Here's a few memorable pics...

P.S. Happy Birthday to my hubby, Trooper Long today! Now he's only 2 years younger than me instead of 3! I love these next 7 months.
