Ok, really. This has been a very strange week for us.
You probably know that I work as a nanny. The kids' parents are out of town this week, so Jonathan, Jonah and I are staying with them. We love them dearly and care for these kids as if they were our own. (I feel qualified to say that since I do have my own) So, I can take whatever comes our way. It is just part of it, as they say.
Well, earlier in the week (my most recent post) I told you about the stomach bug. It hit 3 of the 4 kids (one at a time), Jonah included. It was short-lived. We got through it generally unscathed.
Well, the one kid who didn't get hit with that nasty bug...came down with something else...something much different. Something I believe he's shared with Jonah.
look at these cute guys!
Now, look what he's got.
Yep. those are what you think they are.
Neither boy has been vaccinated for CHICKEN POX.
We won't know for a few days...but these two are best buds, they spend lots of time in close company.
Therefore, the Birthday Party is canceled.
BUMMER.
Oh, well. Thankfully the procrastinator in me hadn't gotten too much ready yet.
We may just have an "adults-who've-already-had-it" only party.
good for him to get it over with now instead of later. I was 12, and it was much harder. Maybe I should bring my kids over and expose them. :)
ReplyDeleteIf he does end up with it...we would probably love your company! ;) (still praying for ya, kristin)
ReplyDeleteThat is a bummer! but! it gives you more time to plan the party! ...in between vomits and naps and medicine giving, of course.
