Phew!

I was chatting to a friend in the carpark at school. It was almost school pickup time and I was there to get The Little Man, The Middle Man was with me... he had come home early feeling unwell.

Chatting happily away to my friend as we got her baby out of the car, the conversation turned to Swine Flu, as she had a cold and was feeling lousy.

"I just don't want to go to the Doctor! I'm terrified. What if I had it? You know, people are dying from it! A nine year old boy died from it the other day!"

Behind me, in his talking to myself, mumbling voice, I heard The Middle Man say:

"Oh God... Lucky I just turned 10!"

He makes me smile!
