The pox

It feels like poor Ben has had one illness after another this year. This week took the biscuit with us all falling prey to a sickness bug, and topped off on Wednesday when Ben was diagnosed with chicken pox. Here he is showing off his spots. At the moment he seems to be coping remarkably well, and it is almost more distressing for us watching the spots sprout by the minute all over his body. Hopefully they'll disappear just as quickly.

You poor things. Yes, we just went through bout three of the flu over here. Is it possible that theseviruses are more prevalent in El Nino years? I like to think that it won't be this bad every year...

It's good that he has the Chicken Pox when he's young, though, right?
