Suspicion confirmed

Yup, as I feared, the wee man definitely has chickenpox. A few more spots have surfaced. So far, it doesn't seem too bad and the wee man isn't itching or scratching.  But it means no school or any activities for awhile - so typical that it happens while Jim's away!

The wee lass is fine but I've also kept her from school just in case she's secretly harbouring the pox already. It wouldn't exactly be the nicest Xmas gift to give to all her pals at nursery, would it?

School holidays start next Wednesday anyway, so they are both only missing a few mornings of nursery anyway. Shame for them to miss their break-up parties though.
