Thanks for taking care of me, Papa!
D has been down with a stomach flu all weekend. A low-grade fever accompanied by vomiting all Friday, not able to keep even water down. She was back to her usual hyper-ness on Saturday. Today morning, we were all set to pack her off to school, when she complains of stomach ache again. Obvious enough, we decide to keep her home.
She does not like it a bit and the conversation with her papa goes thus:
D: I want to go to school. I want to go to school. School. School..
Papa: beta, tummy is hurting na? Take rest today. You can do painting, you can do your cutting project..
D: I will do big potty. Then tummy won’t hurt.
Mumma: There are some germs inside tummy. It will come out only if you take rest.
D: From long long time ago, I did not ever go to school.
[Right! Friday, her long long time ago, she was restrained from going as she had vomited only 5 times in 2 hours.]
D: Mumma, you talk to doctor Aunty. Then, she will tell you to give me red medicine[Tylenol, that is]. Then, my tummy won’t hurt anymore. And then I can go to school. Please mumma.
[Mumma is already on the phone talking to the advice nurse if it is okay to give tylenol for tummy ache.]
Papa: Listen, D. I will come back from office early today evening. We can go to the Library Or Barnes and Nobles. okay?
D: Thanks for saying that to me, papa. Thanks for taking care of me.
Papa was then found on the floor…

I don’t blame Daddy for falling to the floor. Words like that would floor anyone (pun intended). Sweet sweet child.

Dotmom: She is ok now. This morning she says she has to go to school because she has to tell her friends how-she-vomited on Friday. Kids these days!
