Tough day...

Dear Nicky,

You still seemed off your game today. Not so much with your appetite, but your voice sounds really bad. You don't have a fever, which is really good, and that plus a good appetite take away most of the terror. But your poor little voice! It sounds like you have a really sore throat or something. Also, you felt clammy and sweaty off and on all day, and you were pretty tired and took a couple nice-length naps. But you were a little whiny all day, which makes me think you're pretty uncomfortable. I think we might have to pay a visit to the doctor's office tomorrow. You probably just have a little cold or sore throat or something, but it's better to be safe than sorry. Your disposition was quite sunny all day, between painful-sounding crying jags, so maybe I'm just worrying too much. We'll see in the morning.

Love,
Dad
