I am sick.
Who didn't see that coming?
I went to work anyway this morning since I don't have a fever and my fine motor skills have developed so that I can blow my nose AND cover my coughs and sneezes.
Three year olds...not so much.
The same parent who TWICE last week was told, HEY! YOUR KID IS SICK!, had to be called first thing after her sweetie sneezed green snot all over the kid in front of him. She showed up five minutes before pick-up time.
Three other parents had to be called for the same thing and THEY also waited until pick-up time to show up.
WTH?
And I wonder why their children do not follow any instructions I give them.
I mean, you get a call that your child is sick and you wait three hours to go and get him? Who does that? I could understand if they were working parents or maybe even had another child at home with them but to the best of my knowledge, they are home alone all morning. Must be nice. Damn, I was called a few months ago just to be informed that Jacob had a bellyache most likely due to his new meds and I left a full Target cart to rush up there. He is almost TEN fricking years old. These kids are THREE!
Grrr.....this is starting to really piss me off.

Gah. I'm sorry. Hope you feel better!
I remember having the exact same frustration with parents when I was teaching preschool aeons ago.
Get well soon!!!
I don't get it, either. My son is in first grade and was a little stuffy the other day and I kept him home. I've left shopping carts, lunch out with friends, even Dr. appts for my own self to go get a sick kid.
I hope you feel better quick and I surely hope you are using the "Stank Eye" on those parents who do stuff like this.
