Barfy Sunday!!

Hi little cutie,

I did get pharaoh's revenge, and that's why I didn't write last night!! At dinner I began to feel a little weird, so (luckily) I didn't eat much, but later when I got back to my room I threw up a bunch. It was very gross!! So, today I haven't eaten much at all--though I just finished having a kind of soup called "bird's tongue soup". Isn't that weird?! Luckily there are no birds tongues involved, it's just the shape of the noodles. (at least I hope so!!)

Hey, so I love hearing that you're writing down your dreams. Maybe when I come back I can start up my books again, and we can each have our journals... I'd love that! I can also show you journals that I kept every day when you were just a tiny baby. You were so cute!!!

And, your new clothes sound great. You'll have to send pictures of you in them. Orrrr... Maybe I'll just come home in 6 DAYS and see them for myself!!!! How does that sound?!? I cannot wait. This has been so long, and I've missed you so much!!!

Well, be sure to tell me about your and Dada's archaeology day at school. That'll be exciting to think of you two in front of the class together. And then you get to actually see archaeology this summer. To do it even! We will have such fun all together this summer. I can't wait!!!

love, love, love,

your Mama

p.s. The picture is of the really old, really gaudy church that we visited on Barfy Sunday. Maybe it was all the pink and green swirls that got me feeling queasy?

p.p.s. I don't know why they call it pharaoh's revenge... Maybe because all the king's tombs were opened by archaeologists, and so the kings get their revenge by making the archaeologists feel gross?
