ok I'm back

Leo working out with his dumbells

I realized that there are some things I'd like to talk about over here that don't make sense on my other blog so I'm back to writing on this one... Didn't take long!

So I'd like to talk about day care. Leo has a several more months before he goes to day care but I wanted to know your thoughts on the issue. I started thinking about it because I went back to the gym last week and I dropped Leo off at the day care at the gym and to be honest, it grossed me out. I know kids get sick, hell I know my kid will be one of those kids, but when there are several kids sick in the same place it just turns my stomach.

First of all, I know that parents have to send their kids to regular day care when they're sick because they have no choice. They have to go to work. But do you have to send your sick kid to the gym day care? I don't think so. Sure moms want to get out of the house but if your kid is sick, why not just sit this workout session out? I don't know. Maybe I just don't get it. But I can tell you that I wasn't too happy when I dropped Leo off at the day care only to hear "Wow we have lots of sick kids here today!" after the woman tells me that some of the kids played with Leo's pacifier. I know germs are good for kids but still... it's just something I have to get used to I guess.

Ok enough of my rant on that.

What do you do for day care? Does your kid get sick a lot from day care? Are you a germaphobe?
