Sometimes I Get a Positive Surprise...

[TaylorTots]

I took off the 10th (Monday) for an eye exam and an overall break day. I forgot to tell one of my families till yesterday as their dck was sick a lot last week when I let the other families know.

Then on Sunday my uncle passed away and they scheduled the funeral for Friday the 7th.

I did not have one dcp argue with me or seem upset that they had to find alternative care those two days. And because I take both days unpaid, I actually had 2 parents argue with me about how they SHOULD pay me for those days

I love it when my dcps are understanding and don't complain! And I am so looking forward to a 4 day weekend.

My condolences on your uncle's passing but...how nice that your parents are so understanding. My own dc parents are usually very good about things like dr. appointments and funerals. I don't generally take much time off but when I have to, it helps to know they understand. Makes me want to go the extra mile for them when they need my help.

I am sorry for your loss!

Awesome dcparents, though! A few of mine are like that, and it's wonderful to do business with someone who understands that I am human!

So sorry about your uncle!
It's nice that your dcp's are so understanding, it always makes it easier when things come up.

Thanks for the wonderful well wishes ladies!

It seems that on every policy at least one dcp wants to challenge it and I don't take off many days either but a Friday and Monday back to back are noticable to them and I expect a couple to complain etc. Really helped make me feel a little better all around lovethis
