Sunday night it started with a sore throat and a headache. But I don’t always believe them so I said we will see how she feels in the morning. Never made it. 1:30 AM she came running into the bedroom and she was on fire. Poured some meds down her throat but she was still semi awake the rest of the night moaning.
We went off to the doctors – strep. Not a big surprise. The rest of the day she stayed in our bed and dozed off and on. She did go back to her room for the night and was back down at 5am – at least I got some sleep.
Mike stayed with her on Tues and I headed to work. By lunch time she was able to eat a slice of toast. When I got home she decided she felt good enough for a bath. I filled up our tub and found some bubble bath for her. Once we turned on the jet the bubbles really started – and then they sort of exploded. She loved it. Had to go into the shower to rinse off – she looked like a poodle! I’m glad we have The Girl back. We missed her.

The bubbles started and then "exploded" because of the physics of surfactants. Bubbles carry the "soap" to the surface, where they break. As that goes on for a while, the surface of the water becomes soapier than the rest of the bath, so more material is gathered near the surface to make lasting bubbles. So if the bath starts out very dilute in bubble bath, as the aeration proceeds, foam will form only slowly at first, then faster.
