My son started running a low-grade fever last night. So in this day of h1n1 and general flu panic, we're home today. Of course, he has no other visible symptoms, and seems generally fine, but here we are anyway.
Notifying the school of illness seems to be an easy process-- call to the office, email to the teacher. Naturally, the all-important pta not-so-fun-draiser is due today, so we'll be running that by the office after dropping the healthy child at preschool.
The real question is what do you do with a semi-sick kid all day? Do you punish his illness by forcing him to lay around, even though he doesn't feel too bad? Do you pretend he's just fine and drag him to CVS for the bargain of the week? Do you home school for a day, so that he doesn't miss a full day of kindergarten? Geesh.
Whatever we do, it's me plus-one for the day.
