Hard Decisons

Princess Belle and I were supposed to go on a Girl Scout field trip this weekend.  The trip was an outdoor trip with sledding and scarf making.  Belle and I were looking forward to this event.  The night before the trip Doug calls me and says Belle has a 100 degree temperature.  Sigh....I thought this can not be good.  This is where I had to make a decision. 

Should I call the leader and tell her that Sydney is sick and we won't be able to attend or should I wait until morning?  Plus, I was the only adult volunteer going on the trip.  Belle would be staying home but then I would have to go still to the event because I didn't want the other girls to miss out on their fun field trip. Then I wondered, Belle might not be better by morning and I didn't want to have to give the leader last minute notice.  What to do?

Well, I ended up calling and telling the leader that Belle would not be going.  Our leader also was nice enough to find someone else to take my place so that I could stay home with Belle.  Awesome!  Of course when I told Belle, she broke down and cried for awhile.  Then I second guessed my decision. Bummer!

The next morning...........Belle felt 100 percent better and was fine.  So then I felt bad that I made her not go.  I know that I was trying to make the best decision for Belle.  Oh well.....at least she isn't sick anymore.  :)d
