Unraveling mystery

Well, the inevitable has occurred. My little girl has been struck down with the might chicken pox. And since my parents are out of town, thus leaving me with no babysitter, I'm having to use sick leave. But that's ok, she's worth it. And Rio is the best. He's just curled up right next to her on the couch with his chew toy, and he even nudges her hand away any time she starts to scratch herself. I seriously owe the little guy for that. Still, Arashi has been cranky, not that I blame her. Itching everywhere and not being able to sleep well is hardly my idea of fun. Well, guess I better go get some chores done before she wakes up from her nap.
