Monica's school, her ASPIRE program for 1st grade called me at 10:32 this morning. They said she was "off". The back of her neck was warm, and she looked flush. I had just been sick, so they made the smart call, to just call me. I did pick her up.
One of the stipulations I have with her school, and teachers, is just to call me if she is off. I am a firm believer that if a school, day care, anyone tries to calm a kid that's not going to just self settle down, it only makes frustration levels higher for all. The kid can't rewire herself. The teachers have multiple students. In this way, her school is one of the best of its kind. She was using her talker to tell them, "Hey, I want my Ipad, Daniel Tiger" They know she knows it's school time. But they also know if she's off, she's not there anyway mentally.
When we got home, her neck is a little warm, but she is not running a fever. She is eating, drinking, relaxing on the couch, with her tablet, her top hat, and her Daniel Tiger toys.
