A barf chart

*WARNING* The following post is not intended for people with weak stomachs.

Poor Ella got sick today. Tyler cleaned Ella up after she threw up all over herself, while I took her friends home. He mentioned to her that, sometimes, bigger kids throw up in the toilet so that they don't have to take a bath each time. A little while later, I saw/heard her in the bathroom. I was so proud of her for running to the bathroom instead of throwing up on the couch where she was sitting. She was quite proud of herself as well.

Ella: Mom, are you proud of me?
Me: Yes! Nice job Ella.
Ella: Can we make a throw up chart and put a smiley face on it every time I throw up and it's in the toilet?
Me: What if we just put a smiley face on your everyday chart?
Ella: No, I want a throw up chart.
