No Reason To Miss School
Katie came home from school and, as usual, I asked her how her day was. After telling me some of the routine things, she casually added, "Oh. And my friend told me his dad died yesterday." Taken aback, I replied, "That sounds very, very sad, but that couldn't have happened yesterday because your friend wouldn't be in school today." She looked at me point blank and said, "Well, his mom didn't die." (11/29/11)
