Yesterday was another first for me: the first time school called and asked me to pick up my child because she was sick. Maggie looked pretty rough and spent the afternoon on the couch, sounding so sad and pathetic when she called for cuddles and food. Seh felt so bad that she didn’t even want to talk to Winter on the phone. And she wasn’t upset at all that I cancelled the play date she’s been looking forward to for weeks.
She was so miserable that I gave in and offered her a few sips of rasberry ginger ale. She’s been begging for it for days and I just wanted to get something into her. She didn’t like it too much, and then Katie because very interested– probably because I said she couldn’t have any because there were germs in it. First, she stuck her finger intot he glass and licked it, declaring that she really, really liked germs because they were yummy. Then when Stagg explained that she couldn’t see thems because they are really small and she’d need a microscope to see them, she stared intently into the cup asking, Where are the micro folks?
