Yesterday when Sophie was doing her homework, she wrote a fairly long story about when we went to the Stock Show on Sunday. Afterwards, she said she had a really bad headache right in the front of her head above her eyes. She said it was too much writing and it hurt her brain. So I gave her Tylenol & tucked her in bed to rest.
She soon fell asleep but I woke her up for dinner & to see how the head was (we were supposed to go to their school's 'Spirit Night' at Chick-Fil-A). I gave her a couple of pieces of pizza & she thought her head felt better & good enough to go. She did not want to miss Spirit Night...her teacher was serving drinks from 6-6:30 and what kid can pass up the chance to see their teacher not only out in the real world, but also making the drink you order!!
So we went over and got drinks & ice cream & said "hi" to her teacher and "don't quit your day job" when she made 2 more drinks than we ordered.
When we got home, Sophie said she was cold so bundled up and then after about 1/2 hour, she cried and cried because her head now hurt all across the back and that she was so hot. I took her temperature and it was 100.9 so we sent her straight to bed. She fell asleep right away & slept most of the night. This morning her temp was still over 100 so I kept her home from school--the first time in her school career.
Anyway, the point is, even this morning she said her head hurts because of all the writing she did yesterday and never wants to write about the Stock Show again.
