Chicken pox: A Story of Christmas

In an exciting turn of events, Scarlett has the chicken pox.  She thinks this is SO AWESOME because her cousins had them first- she was jealous, why let them have all the fun?- and because today we've let her watch Dora anytime she wants.  In our house, tv is a real luxury.  Right now, she's watching the Curious George Christmas, and she's smiling and happy and telling me what's happening, because I can't see the screen from where I'm sitting.

"They have a yellow car! They have a white tree?  George is able to sit in the front of a car, Mom"

Yesterday afternoon, she was feverish, wanting to cuddle.  Then her cousins came over to play, and she turned into her happy self.

This morning, she woke up and made donuts with Charlie.  Who knows what the afternoon will bring?
