Parenting Tip #62:
If a four year old volunteers to go to bed at 6:30 pm… you let that child go to bed.
Also, check their temperature and might as well start making alternate child care plans for tomorrow.
And, word to the wise — don’t wear your good pajamas to bed because the likelihood that Patient Zero is going to crawl into your bed in the night to then puke on you is about 50/50.
