hot blooded

during the spring dr. paul was giving me all my shots i needed to keep me healthy. this one shot made me have a fever for a couple days, but i was okay. this one day, mama picked me up and she had cousins danny and mady with her like we did for a bunch of thursdays to help aunt cathy out. my teachers told mama that i had a fever of 100 or 101. mama said okay, it was probably because i had been teething -- what else is new! do these teeth ever stop growing? well, we went out to dinner, then went to the park afterwards to play. while we were at the park, school called mama to remind her that i couldn't go back to school the next day because of my fever! boy was mama mad. just to show my teachers that i wasn't sick, we went to see dr. paul the next day since mama had to call in to work and take the day off anyway. well, mama couldn't believe it when dr. paul told her it was most likely the last shot he gave me. i felt fine though. she even told school that, but i guess it's because of something they call a 'policy' i couldn't go to school. mama said sometimes rules are just the rules. i'm starting to not like rules...rules always means "no no" to something.
