Of course this would happen today

While it's not uncommon for me to have to visit the school during the school day, there hasn't been any unexpected trips so far this year. That is of course, until today

Elliott wasn't feeling well and needed to come home. When this type of thing happens, I like to react quickly and bring them home where they can be more comfortable.

Of course this would happen today...

Since we lost our van this week, we've but blessed with the use age of my parents car. We've been able to get the kids to and from school as well as to therapy and the doctors. <img src="https://lxnxuovarpoeyuzaxuet.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/blog-images/inline/2013/12/wpid-instaquote-13-12-2013-14-46-31.png" alt="" class="inline-block max-w-full h-auto rounded-xl my-4" loading="lazy" />

Today however, we ran into a scheduling conflict and my parents needed their car this morning. That's totally cool and we worked everything out and all was right with the world. That is until I got *the phone call*.

Of all the days this could have happened, it had to happen on the one day that we were powerless to really do anything.

I mentioned a call from the school. This call was to inform us that one, Mr. Elliott Richard was not feeling well and needed to come home. I instinctively responded that we would be right there. It wasn't until after I hung up that I remembered I couldn't just jump in the van and pick him up.

Eventually, I was able to make arrangements to get him home and it didn't take that long.

Things worked out this time but we are only a few days into no longer having a car.
