I am not a fan of school, I never have been. This is funny (not in a Ha Ha sort of way...more like if I don't laugh I will cry sort of way) because I am currently a college student and let's just say I am no spring chicken.
ANYWAY.
I don't like it...but my kids do. Huh.
My oldest has been sick for about a week with a nasty bronchial thing that makes her cough. Alot. This is no bueno. Especially since she has Reactive Airway Disease and colds tend to settle in her chest and stay there. So, she's been sick and I made her stay home from school yesterday. Now, any ordinary kid would be like, "Whooo Hooooo!", right? Yeah, not my kid. She was not happy with me because she had to stay home. I got the eye roll, the "Moooommmmm!", the "stare", the stomp down the hall. The whole bit. Because she couldn't go to school.
It gets even better.
Today, I took her to the Doc, just to make sure it wasn't something more serious (and it's not ☺) but our Peds Doc wanted her to stay home a few more days. Holy cow Batman, you would have thought he asked her to give her right arm! "Please, please let me go back to school, I feel fine!" So, he dutifully changed the date to tomorrow. She may have well won the lottery, she was so happy.
So, intrepid readers, I ask you...no, I can't even ask. I'm just going to go with it.
I used to fake sick all the time to get out of school, until high school. I was entirely too social to miss out on my friends at school. I also loved my Spanish and Art classes. Does Miss Zippy love her social life? Or does she have an awesome teacher?
ReplyDeleteShe just loves school! She has great teachers and an active social life, but when it comes right down to it, she just likes going to school! Imagine that..
