By this time last year Connor already hated school. He would wake up with stomach aches, sore throats, and any manner of ailments. If we let him stay home because he was "sick" we tried to make him as miserable as possible.
What a difference a year makes.
Last night Connor was up coughing half the night, and wasn't much better this morning. After very little deliberation Ben and I decided to keep him home for the day. We let Connor know that we were keeping him home and there was much...crying? Huge sad tears. He begged and pleaded with us to send him to school because he didn't want to miss anything.
Another small victory!
It is a wonderful feeling, isn't it?
