Recipe for disaster
Take one 2 year-old.
Give her chicken pox.
Ostracise her from playgroup for the last week before summer break.
Sprinkle her with a niggling fever, and smear her all over her baby sister.
Take one 2 year old's mother.
Turn her into a neighbourhood pariah (no-one wants their children to get chicken pox before they go on holiday.)
Add a generous dollop of self-pity.
Give both mother and daughter some very high-waisted grumpy trousers to wear and turn the oven up to 34 degrees, until everyone is completely fried.
Serves: no-one.

Poor Switzerlady! Poor Emma! Have you tried those "magic" painting books where the paper is impregnated with some sort of dye and you just brush water over the top to bring out the colour? They are FANTASTIC for keeping two year olds occupied, and if things get knocked over - at least it's only water! Keeps hands busy and not scratching as well!
Good luck!
oh what a cruel twist. chicken pox in this weather must be unbearable for all of you. yakky xxx

You poor love. At least it'll be over with I suppose. We're having fun with O's sleep at the mo - or lack of it. Up til ten two nights running and not sleeping during the day! Aagh...
