Donuts with Dad

Today I had to do something I was really dreading. I knew about it last night, but decided to wait until this morning. I was hoping for less drama that way. I had to tell Chloe that she couldn't go to preschool. Her stomach was messed up yesterday, but I was hoping that it would go away. It didn't go away. She was feeling pretty lousy by bedtime. She had a fever, and she was almost falling asleep on the couch at seven. She even took a nap yesterday, which should have told me she wasn't feeling good. So, this morning I told her that she couldn't go to preschool, and she started crying. Then she remembered that she was supposed to have Donuts with Dad there. She was pretty pitiful, but as most kids do, she recovered pretty quickly. She did keep trying to convince me that she was fine to go because she was feeling better. I promised her that Daddy would come eat lunch with her one day to make up for her missing today. That seemed to help. Oh, and to top it all off, we're traveling this weekend. Yay!!
