Remember When I Thought My Son Was Pretending He Was Sick?

07.13.11

You know… yesterday

Well, my friend had picked the kids up from camp and delivered them to my house. When I walked out to the driveway to greet everyone she told me, “the counselor said he was really surprised that you didn’t come pick him up. He seems pretty sick.”

I hugged Alexander and asked him if everything was okay. Because, ya know, I’m still thinking there’s a social issue.

And then there was this.

Which of course reminded me of this.

    Boo :( You were only doing what you thought best. I hope he feels better!

    I’m pretty sure that friend wasn’t trying to sound judgmental if it came across that way, FYI. It sounds like whoever it was just wanted to relay the info ;)

    Oh no! Now you feel terrible for not believe him :( Well, let’s hope it is just a virus and passes super quickly.
