• The flu bug bids goodbye

Things are a lot quieter at home now. My two-year-old girl has recovered from her flu which has lasted slightly more than a week. Throughout the dreaded week, she was so irritable and cried over little things. It drove my wife and I up the wall sometimes. That is why we are so afraid of her getting sick.

She’s now sitting in front of the TV watching Dora episodes. She seems to be in good mood today playing with her toys and watching her shows quietly without bothering us. This situation is so different from last week when she was sick.

I hope the flu bug doesn’t get to any one of us as Chinese New Year is approaching. I wouldn’t want the flu bug to dampen CNY celebrations, the only time of the year where family members get together and catch up with each other.
