Posted - Mar 25 2010 : 05:55:58 AM Both my little darlings (6 and 7 years old) are down with chicken pox.
We just got chickens.
"Mom, does getting chickens mean you get chicken pox?"
I can see how they could be confused. ;)
I'm preparing to shell out lots of oatmeal/baking soda baths and Mama love!!!

Posted - Mar 25 2010 : 6:40:43 PM *Oh my*!!! Amy, darlin', that's no fun! You poor thing, but it is so funny that they think they got it from the chickens...I remember having it, I was five, and it was miserable. At least they both have it. Hugs to all three of you...and tell Mr. Roo hello.

Posted - Mar 25 2010 : 11:10:22 AM EWWWWW! I VIVIDLY recall the misery of chicken pox! Poor little guys.I hope that it goes quickly for them. I went out in the sun and relapsed and had the darned things for nearly two months. Yuck! But kid thought is adorable! I love the little leaps of kid logic ![](icons/icon_smile.gif) Shirley, if I could plant nuts and get chocolate trees, I'd be out there plantin' away! LOL

Posted - Mar 25 2010 : 11:09:13 AM Well, it makes perfect sense to me...new chickens and then comes the pox.

Posted - Mar 25 2010 : 10:35:17 AM My sons got them 1 year apart on halloween. So I took a bag with me and told everyone my son was home with the chicken pox's. The next year I had to do the same thing for my other son. Only a few people said I heard that last year, thank God they were my friends and they knew it was true.
My youngest was fine when I took him over to my moms at 5am. When I came home from work and saw him I cried. He had them all over his body, face & even the bottoms of his feet. He said. Thank-you mom for crying, gramma just keeps laughing at me.
I can see where your children would believe they came from chickens, That is a memory you & they will cherish. (believe it or not.)
Hope all your days are Sunnydays. dianebcarterhotmailcom.blogspot.com |

Posted - Mar 25 2010 : 09:29:50 AM The boys are hilarious. I told them "No school today" and they are sacked out watching Star Wars. My youngest said "You know, Mom, I don't think this chicken pox thing is too bad. I'm a little itchy. But the annoying thing is when your mom asks you 100 times a day to lift up your shirt so she can check your spots." I laughed so hard. :)

Melanie - thanks for the tip about the knit glove. I'll keep that in mind if the itching gets too intense!

Posted - Mar 25 2010 : 06:12:13 AM LOL Amy! I had the chicken pox when I was pregnant with my youngest. Eeewwww it was miserable. But I found a way to scratch without getting all tore open and scarred up. You know those knit gloves they carry at walmart, the real cheap ones? They come in two sets for a buck or two? Anyhoo.. I just rubbed over my pox gently, it was enough to relieve the itch but didn't do any damage. Just a little thought if they get to scratching too bad. Hope they feel better soon.

Posted - Mar 25 2010 : 06:04:37 AM That is so cute. It reminds me of something one of my granddaughters said one day. My granddaughter was eating a piece of chocolate candy one day and it had a nut in it. She asked her mom if she could plant the nut and grow a chocolate tree. Little ones say the cutest things ![](icons/icon_smile_blush.gif)
