A Pox On Me!
That’s right!
I got chicken pox and have been looking a little like a cheetah for the past week. Impressively I have
quite a few spots all over (even on the palms of my hands and special place).
Fortunately they haven’t been itchy so mum and dad only painted me once with camomile lotion. Ohhh that was very funny as I had white spots with pink dots in them. :)
Dad has been home looking after both Alex and me for the last 5 days as he thought Alex might get it as well (he didn’t). Dad has had chicken pox so he was safe.
Mum had to have a blood test to check if she had had chicken pox (she has) so that was a relief.
Its been a bit boring as we’ve not been allowed to play with other kids at the park. A lot of parents whisk their kids away once mum warns them that I’m contagious (and they say people would pay to attend a chicken pox party!).
On the weekend mum and dad resorted to crafts so Alex and I were treated to painting, sticking and gluing, and playdo.
We made a mess. :)
