"Ick" words

Super Why Characters

I've been watching way too much Super Why...  Last night while I was rocking Baby to sleep, all I could think of were "ick" words.  Call me Wonder Red.

Snot in the nose, snot in the mouth.  Ick.

Baby is coughing.  Baby is sniffling.  Just as I suspected...  Poor Baby.  Sick.

She's running a fever.  Advil or Tylenol?  One's fast acting, the other's long lasting.  Which one to use?  Pick.

Advil it is.  Give it to her.  Quick.

Time for bed.  Time for sleep.  Baby won't settle unless she's with me. We're cuddled close together.  We're joined at the hip.  Her hair is glued to my face.  Stick.  Stick.  Stick.

We're on the rocking chair.  Passing the time.  The hours go by.  Tick... tick... tick...

Baby's finally asleep.  She's out like a light.  Must be something up my sleeve.  Trick!

She's in her crib.  She hasn't moved.  I'm sneaking out.  Slick.

I spoke too soon.  I left too fast.  The floor is making noise.  Crick, crick, crick.

Baby woke up.  We'll do it all again.  Mommy's so tired.  When will it end?

Next week's lesson... "uck" words.
