I kind of wish I had chosen to stay home

Today I am working in elementary.  I had known for quite some time, that due to the high school schedule today, there would be no jobs available there.  When a fifth grade job popped up from a teacher who likes me in her room, I took it.  I didn't want to give up an entire day of pay if I didn't need to.

As it turns out, I wish I had stayed home.  Not because I'm having a miserable day here, but because Catherine has been home for over an hour.  Thomas and Andrew are on a freshman class field trip, but Catherine's grade was testing today.  They were allowed to leave after the testing was finished, and she is home all afternoon.  In retrospect, while we need the money, I wish I had allowed myself to spend the afternoon with her.  There just aren't going to be many of these days left!
