Adrift: Day 3

The smell is getting worse. No...I mean it's getting much, much worse. (Where's that vomid bag when I need it?)

My children lost their appetite for unrecognizable sandwich creations early on. Luckily I have a smart husband. He was able to foresee an imminent problem with the food situation and our children. Therefore, during the Day One breakfast he was able to procure (and stuff in his backpack) an absurd amount of little cereal boxes which we passed out every time we heard, "I'm not going to eat that!"

This morning, as Lindy was eagerly slurping down a bowl of Froot Loops she suddenly exclaimed, "Look! It's us!"

We glanced over to see a single green Loop adrift in the middle of her bowl. We all watched the lone vessel as it slowly floated toward the edge of the bowl. As soon as it reached it's destination Lindy exclaimed, "Yay! We made it to land!"

We've laughed for days.
