Clarification

All day today during school time, Christopher kept telling me he was sick. He was too sick for school work, too sick for reading, too sick for sitting on the couch like a normal person, etc. Toward the end of the afternoon, however, he began to talk with excitement about going outside to play after school was done. I said it was too bad he was too sick to go out and play. He quickly explained, "Well, I'm not really sick. I'm not too sick to play. I just have a coughing issue."

Right. A coughing issue....
