      I almost got the day off.

      I have sisters, 7 & 4, whose dad is off, so they're staying home.
      I have a 4 yr old girl who is sick, so she AND her 9 yo brother will be staying home.
      I have an 8 yo girl who, when I texted Mom that the 7 yr old girl and 9 yo boy would not be here, she asked if she could stay home with Dad, who works at home.

      So that's 5 of my 6 who will NOT be here.

      I then texted Mom of my 3 yo girl (with my fingers totally CROSSED!) and said, "Just a heads up that your daughter will be the only one here, so if she wants to bring something to play with, she can."

      I was hoping Mom would say let's just take her to Grandma's so you can have the day off. Nope. She wrote back, "Sounds great. See you in the morning."

      Oh well.... we'll find something to keep us busy I guess!!

        Eww what a bummer

        Maybe she will pick her up early if you stress to the mom that she will be the ONLY one in care. Therefore she will have no one to play with ::

            Tomorrow is one of my favorite type of days!

            I only have 4 kids scheduled so the day will be VERY low key but I will be able to get ALOT of paperwork done as well as a ton of things I have been putting off for a while.




            @jenn I hope you feel better soon too!

              I'll be working and will likely have every single child here. That's always how it works out. ::

              It's also a birthday day so there will be sugary donuts shared at snack time (that is what the parent is bringing). Holy cow. Help me.

                    Oh wow, that's unusual. At least I think it's unusual. I thought ALL American schools got Presidents' Day off. :confused:

                        We are open. Only one child will not be there and he is the only one who is semi-easy. So, I will have all the lesser behaved kids....sigh.....

                            We used to get it off, then a few years ago it was changed to a teacher workday. The last 2 years it is just a regular school day. But I think next year it is back to a holiday :confused:

                            We go a long time from MLK to Good Friday without a day off.

                              I'm so looking forward to having a quiet day off and the best part is having my daughter, SIL, and baby grand daughter spending the day here with me!!!
