Then I sneezed six times without stopping.
'Oh no,' said Mum again.
'Oh yes,' I said. 'Poor little Sadie!'
'Poor little me,' said Mum. 'It looks like I'm going to have my hands full nursing you two.'

'Let's hope Gemma and Vincent
and baby Clive haven't caught it too.
Then it won't just be your hands –
you'll have two arms and a leg full as well,' I said.
Later
I am still sneezing. I am still shivery.
My head hurts. I do not feel very well at all. I think I definitely do have flu.
I am not pleased. Although wait a minute. If I've got flu I won't be able to go back to school tomorrow. So I'll have more holiday, even though it looks like I'll be stuck in bed.

Later still
If I don't go back to school tomorrow I won't be able to hand in my holiday diary. So what does that mean? I've filled up all this great long book for nothing!
