Dcb threw up right at pick up last night. He was completely fine all day and it was very sudden, and he was completely fine afterwards.

Policy states no vomiting for 24 hours. It really did seem like a one time thing. Dcm brought him this morning (I know, I know), I asked her is he was better. "Oh yeah! He didn't puke at all and ate all his dinner."

I just made a comment that we have fun plans this weekend with our children, so I don't want to risk anyone getting sick. "Oh, no! He has a weak gag reflux."

Not even 40 minutes after she leaves, he pukes up his morning snack. Oh, and no change of clothes.

I knew better, I really did. I'm so mad at myself

Don't beat yourself up. I think we've all been there. Your backbone will be that much stronger for the next time something like this comes up. I hope no one else ended up getting it and that you were able to have that fun weekend with your own kids!

Almost every morning, DCM brings a pair or 2 of shorts for DCB to change into in case he wants to. First of all lady.. dress your kid appropriately for the weather, its not my job to dress him every morning. Make him wear the shorts. Then grandpa picks up, my last child. I dont live in the house i do daycare in so i already locked up and was putting my own child (a baby) in the car when i see grandpa driving down the road again and says “he wants to get his shorts”
“Oh I already locked up, they will be here tomorrow”
Like really..why did the kid NEED the shorts. The day was already almost over and im sure he has a million other shorts at home. Why does this family answer to every whim of this child?!

Had our licenser pop in for our annual surprise inspection before relicensing today- all went well! But I'm an extremely anxious person so I'm always startled when she shows up and thinking I've gotta be doing something wrong- but nope it went well, no issues- howeverrrr

this means its yearly relicensing time again! My least favorite time of the year. I hate paperwork Here's to hoping it all goes well!

Dcd has shown up early several times lately....he doesn’t come to the door, just sits in his vehicle until I open the door at 7:30. Fine, whatever....I just go about my business until then. This morning I looked outside at 7:15–already out there. I opened the door at 7:30 as usual. A few minutes later, dcg asked, “WHY didn’t you open the door?!?”

Predicted high of 99 today...dcg shows up in jeans and a long-sleeved shirt.

SMH. I have a few that do that here too... :confused:

Most times the kid is old enough to know better and if not, the parent certainly is.

It's been HOT here too with super high humidity lately so really hard to even breathe but yeah, those black denim jeans go fantastic with that triple layer fleece sweatshirt.

Pretty sure this is a battle parents should pick.

I agree! Parents need to put a foot down here. I mean, we won’t be out there running in the heat of the day, but we are out from breakfast until time to nap. It gets plenty hot during that time.

This is my 7 year old.. we had record highs this summer and the kid keeps dressing like he's going on an Artic expedition.... :confused:

Thankfully he's just home with me, so some days I've let him do his thing. I just dont know how he can stand it it!!!

Yup! My 25 year old dd has been known to wear jeans and a heavy sweatshirt with another shirt underneath it on 90 degree/humid days. Somedays I want to pass out just looking at her! She says she's comfortable.:confused:

A school-ager even noticed, and said, “Dcg must be hot in those clothes. I asked her one day and she said she doesn’t have any shorts.”

That piece of info makes it sad. Poor kid!

Does it irritate anyone else to get reimbursed for meals at half the rate of providers one town over, who charge the same or higher rates, and pay less in property taxes?
