It’s Day 5 of my chicken pox watch and my folks are singing praises of the cream that gets applied on my face. I have practically no marks on my face! I looked like a pimply teenager two days ago, but my youthful good looks are back.
I think that the medicines that I put inside [...]
Wow, it is already Day 4 of my chicken pox watch. And I have watched myself transform from a human to a leopard… I have spots all over my body!
My folks say that I am also a walking pharmaceutical lab because of the battery of medications that I take. Some are to reduce the pox [...]
Cluck-cluck-cluck! Why am I clucking? I’m a chicken, that’s why!
I just found out that I have chicken pox. I have been incubating it for about a week and now the virus is putting on its show!
The show consists of spots that have started appearing all over my body. My folks and the doctor tell me [...]
Papa tells me that I have to learn a new word: Expectorate. But he also tells me that, for now, it is more important that I learn how to do it than to spell it. I am not sure which will be harder to do.
I am told that to “expectorate” is to make that “haaaak-ptui!” [...]
OK, I’ll admit it, I’m a little prude. But I can get quite “rude” too.
When I see a bit too much flesh on TV, I will go “Yee!”. Sometimes the legs belong to a model walking across the screen. Sometimes it is a woman in her underwear.
When papa asks me why I react like that, [...]
Even as a recuperate at home, I envy some other kids at school. Or rather, those who don’t have to go to school now because it is vacation time.
When I get better, it’s back to school for me. How come they get to enjoy a break while I still have to attend nursery school?
Actually, I [...]
I am the littlest in my small family of three. I am often last as well. I am the last to finish my food and I do things the slowest. Sigh!
But I am the first at some things. I am the often the first to wake up in the morning and I can sometimes finish [...]
… that gets sick together, stays together.
I coughed, papa coughed, and mama coughed. We all cough.
Little Coughing Isaac
I may be small, but I am powerful. Just ask papa.
I have been nursing a mild cough for about a week. During that week, it has been business as usual for me. Then papa sucked in some of my germs and he was down for the count today.
So don’t look down on me. I might [...]
When I meet papa at the end of every work day, he will ask me how my day was. And I will tell him… if I remember anything outstanding. Yesterday, I told papa how my day was without him asking. I had a bad day!
It was really bad because one of my good friends in [...]
