[quote=Anonymous]It's my oldest daughter's first year in school- 3yo PreK. We also have an infant. All four of us have had COVID over the last two weeks. My (very healthy) 3yo had a very scary case which resulted in a two-day hospital stay. It has been a LOT on top of DH and I working from home with the two kids, but I know many families have been through this. We are finally all better and it's her first day back to school today.

At 7:43am, TWO MINUTES before school starts, I got a text from a random number "I sent a note home asking you to bring themed napkins and plates for today's valentines party. Never heard back so assuming you aren't?"

I responded and said I was so sorry; we have all had a rough time with COVID over the last two weeks and my daughter has not been in school since January 28th so I did not receive the note. The party began at 8am and we walk to school so I let her know I had my baby in the stroller, but could run home, get the car, and grab plates and napkins and drop them off about 15 mins after the party started (which would make me late to daycare drop off and work but I didn't say that).

She responded "It's fine. We will do without".

I feel so disheartened. Why couldn't she have followed up with more than TWO MINUTES notice? I genuinely had not received her note and she clearly had my contact info. I was really looking forward to having our first day of childcare in over two weeks and focusing on work and it just really put a damper on my day ugh.
