I was on the phone with a friend from graduate school. It must be a sign of aging, but this guy is now legitimately an “eminent” scientist. He was in the car while his wife drove the family to his father’s house. We talked about the things for which we are grateful. We hadn’t gotten very far into it when he said “Gotta go. Noa’s barfing. She’s car sick.” [Noa is 5.]

I am grateful for the fact that my daughter (also age 5) who is often car sick can now reliably get it into a can we keep in the car for that purpose. Gotta appreciate the small things.
True love is with a sick kid at 0200.
I can assure you that such experiences are not limited to eminent scientists or Thanksgiving holidays. Ask your folks. 🙂
