And it's not like I can say "It's your fault, next year keep your grades up!" because he's 8 and he really did do remarkable last year. He's just still not up to the level of his peers so he needs to work even harder.
His asthma and allergies are bothering him a bit this morning and he's tired, but I know he should go to school. I tried the usual "It's Wednesday, the week goes quick from here." and "It's only a couple of hours and then you can come home and play or take a nap if you're still tired."
Grrrr!!! It's just not happening this morning. He's already hacking up phlegm (yummy!)We can't find his inhaler.
And oh, there's the bus!!!
