Ella is great at keeping her mask on and staying socially distant. She’s also alarmingly good at asking for hand sanitizer every time I pick her up from hybrid school. Nonetheless she developed a runny nose the other day. We tele-healthed and they suggested we get her a Covid test. Took her yesterday. We should get the results back in a couple days. I’m not worried.
This morning Ella was playing upstairs in the attic. I called up…

ME
How you feeling this morning?

ELLA
Good. Did you get my testicles?

ME
What?

ELLA
Did you get my testicles?

ME
I’m sorry, what are you saying?

ELLA
Did. You. Get. My. Test. Results?
