“Yes, ma'am. So did a girl named Lily who threw up after lunch,” he answered.

Oh dear God, please let's not have a stomach bug sweeping through the school, Lizzie thought. She got up and took Sawyer's backpack over to the sink and began spraying it with disinfectant spray.

“So what did you do at school today?” Lizzie asked again.

“Oh, nothing special. We did do a really cool experiment in science; I made a pencil stand up on its point!” he shared.

“How did you do that?”

“I used a wire and some clothespins, you know, for counterweights. It was hard to get the wire wrapped right, but I was the first in the class to figure it out!” Sawyer took a gulp of the milk.

“And homework?” Lizzie pressed.

“I have to study for my spelling test, and I have to read, but no math tonight.”

“Okay, why don't you, play outside for a bit and we can study your words after supper and then you can read to Aunt Dorothy before bed.” Lizzie walked to the fridge to get out the veggies to prep for supper.
