When I stepped into the daycare this afternoon (late, because I was feverishly trying to finish something at work) one of the workers said, “We think we found a few more spots on Jade, so she won’t be able to come into the daycare tomorrow without a doctor’s note.”
Upstairs in the toddler room, we looked Jade over and sure enough, she seems to be getting a number of spots on her back and her legs. So it looks like this might be it, after all. As I said before, this is not upsetting to me, as I’d like her to get this childhood disease over with once and for all. The only thing I am a bit concerned about is the party at our house on Sunday morning. This is kind of a post-gig celebration, after the big dance on Saturday night, and I don’t mind hosting it, even if Jade is covered in spots. I just hope everyone who wanted to come is immune to chicken pox. I sent an e-mail out to everyone to let them know so that we don’t infect anyone who doesn’t want to be infected; I’m hoping I don’t get any e-mails back!
I guess our house is now technically under quarantine. I remember reading that in the old days, houses that were under quarantine had to put yellow flags up in their windows. Apparently, this is something ships still have to do. Think anyone would get it?
