Mommy, My Tummy Hurts

Zach is out of bed before 6:00 on most mornings, so I was a bit worried when I had to wake him up at 6:40 for a quick breakfast before school. Sleeping this late typically means that he's sick, but he wakes up with a big smile. However, that smile quickly fades as we're at the table eating breakfast.

Zach: Mommy, my tummy hurts.

Mommy: Maybe you're hungry, buddy. You didn't eat your dinner last night. Eat your waffle and I bet you'll feel better.

Zach: No, Mommy. I'm not hungry.

Mommy: Do you need to go and spit in the potty?

Zach: No, Mommy.

Mommy: Well... what do you think will make you feel better?

Zach: (pause) I think playing a game of Memory will make me feel better. Can we play Memory?
