Got a “lice note” halfway through winter break. Ummm, why the delay?

How always your first day back?

Nuts probably won’t hurt her. Relax.

Oh she loves nuts. We eat them at home -- school just is nut-free and its a no-no for lunch boxes.

I hate when that happens!

Bus came early, kid missed it, some tears. No one is thrilled to be back, but at least the weather was nice today.

Oh man. Everything went wrong today! I didn’t make breakfast (kiddo probably didn’t have breakfast, but does have the option of free school breakfast), was running late, traffic was awful getting to work, I had to call the school to have my kid stay late for math because I needed to work later than normal, then I told my kid it was Tuesday so he couldn’t call his dad (his dad has later work days on Tuesday’s), obviously it’s Monday so oops, and I had to scramble to sort out childcare for tomorrow afternoon because my childcare canceled at the last minute. Ugh!

Late making nice coffee to go and then drove to work without it.

I hope the nut-free policy is just a general precaution, otherwise, if there is a child with a lethal nut allergy in her class, you should feel much worse than you are. This is entirely more critical than forgetting the lovey, even if it doesn’t seem like it on your end.

OP here -- there aren't any allergies in DD's class and the nuts were just sent back and she was told to eat them at home. The teachers are on it...

Quite a dramatic response.

Even preschool kids nowadays know not to share food.

Calm down. It was an accident.

We were 10 minutes late and had to get a tardy slip from the office but it was DS’s birthday and I didn’t have the heart to rush him. We will do better tomorrow.

DD5 skipped breakfast b/c it wasn’t homemade waffles like I’d been making during break... otherwise it was a good day.

Blissful. Prepared last night. Teleworked today. We are all glad to be back to the routine!
