I'm meant to be returning to work this week after 6 months ML but both children, 3 and 6 months are sick, both have stinking colds and this coughing virus that is doing the rounds. Nursery don't want a contagious 3 year old back until she's better, understandable, and both mine and DH mums are unwilling to look after 6 month old while she's so poorly, understandable again (also doesn't help they were both SAHM's so think I should be at home).
I've just emailed my boss and been honest and said both children are ill and can I delay coming back by a week.
Would you have done that or made up another excuse?
I know it looks terrible having to delay due to sic kids and I can imagine my boss will be rolling her eyes (she doesn't have any children).
