Well it is certain, Jessaleigh caught the chicken pox; it is still unclear if Chanler caught them too, or if he will have to wait and get them from his sister. Jessaleigh is pretty well covered in spots – back, neck, scalp, face, and my least favorites, inside her ear and under the diaper! The ones on her neck and ear seem to be bothering her the most, but fortunately my Mother-In-Law (Payce) left me some MSM lotion. I don’t really know why it works, but it seems to help her feel better.

ETA: Chanler is significantly annoyed that he has no spots and his sister does. I think he has been looking forward to getting the chicken pox so that we can have friends (who want to catch them) over and he can be the “lollipop taster.” That is what we called the boy who we caught the pox from, because he got to taste everyone’s lollipop before they got it.

Here’s hoping for a good night, but not expecting one!
