Kimber caught the chickenpox! She was immunized and her outbreak really wasn't too terrible and it cleared up within just a couple of days. She was the 7th or 8th in her class to get it. Only 5th graders came down with it and at last count I think there were about 10 or 11 total out of her grade. It's really interesting just for the fact that no other grades had an outbreak. Maybe a bad year for the vaccine? Or just good luck for Kimber - I hear that if you get the chickenpox after the vaccine your chance of shingles goes down! Hopefully so after watching mom go through it this summer! Another bonus is that they were all gone by the time Christmas rolled around!
