The Sick Policy

So Noah and I are supposed to start school tomorrow. The catch is the new daycare sick policy. Noah can not go with a runny nose. And what do you think he came down with on Thursday?? A yellow runny nose! I took him straight to Dr. Pettit. I was looking for a note to clear him for school. I didn't get that. But the good news is the doctor said was that his lungs are clear and he doesn't expect any asthma complications. Which I am thankful but still seriously bummed that on the first day back we have to figure out alternate child care plans. Noah was so healthy all summer. What timing. So tomorrow Adam is going to switch his Friday day off to be with him. But after that we don't know. We were hoping to save sick days for a possible flu outbreak or stomach bugs. We don't want to use them for a runny nose that Dr. Pettit said could last 7-14 days!! So Noah and I are home from church today praying for clear snot :)

Oh sad! That is so hard! And, can I just say a weird policy? I mean, kids go through running noses like crazy! Well, I will pray for clear snot for a long, long time! I hope your first day back was good other than that!
