It seems the Miniest Peeler has a stomach virus or gastro. Symptoms correspond almost exactly.. it was suddenly hectic for a few hours there but seems to have settled down a bit now. Looks some time off school is on the cards. If she's ok tomorrow and just in need of fluids and rest for recovery then I can leave Mr Peeler in charge. If not then I'll have to take the day off. She told me lots of kids in her class have been absent due to an illness that still seems to be going around. Maybe people don't realise that even after someone has stopped vomiting etc and appear to have fully recovered, the virus is still contagious for a couple of weeks afterwards? I'll be keeping her home in any case.
