Day 5 of Chickenpox

Today we are on day 5 of Kirstens chickenpox and she really is feeling sorry for herself. She has them everywhere, completely covered and she is trying to be so brave! It is at night when they are bothering her the most and after she has taken her meds there is nothing else I can really do other than to give her a cuddle and tell her that it will get better - it is heart breaking and one of the times that I do not enjoy being a single mum.

Even my lovely boyfriend would have been able to give me a cuddle but he is still in Ghana although he is due to return on Wednesday.

As a consequence of K finding the night times the hardest I am absolutely exhausted!

Hey ho - I managed to find some time this afternoon to do some gardening out in the front garden - I installed Kirsten on a sunlounger wrapped in a sheet as I though that the fresh air might do her some good.

This little chap was in next doors tree when I went upstairs to get a cardigan - luckily my camera was already in my bedroom - not the best shot but to be honest I am not really inclined to get another!
