Nico is a serene one, a fact she had to prove even in illness. John and I had the chance to go out New Year's Eve, the first time in ages courtesy of my parents. We had dinner and were at a house party when we got the dreaded phone call. Nico had been crying for quite a while despite my parents best efforts. She seemed fine, but the next day spiked a high fever, almost 103. After I checked her temperature and was horrified, she smiled at me and started to giggle. She is more pitiful than usual, but I'm happy she's handling this so well and better than I!
Nolan's doing a swell job of entertaining her in her illness, with my phone no less. Tonight he was putting his head in her lap and she was enjoying grabbing his hair and face and trying to chew on any part she could manage. She was attacking his head with the same vigor and excitement that she goes for drinking glasses! Nolan used to
love the glasses, too. All of this makes us laugh, and laughter can make the best medicine anyways.
