Little hugs bring BIG germs

One of the greatest parts of working in the field of early childhood education is the hugs. Each day I am in the classroom I get a minimum of 5 hugs. It is nice to be loved, but these little hugs come with big germs attached! Last week most of my class was sniffling and/or coughing. I didn't think to put a stop on the hugs because I figured everyone was just suffering from allergies and they all looked so miserable they needed the extra hugs they were asking for. BIG MISTAKE! I have been infected by the pre-k plague and I find myself acting like a sick four year old. I am sniffly, coughing, and whining for all it is worth. There hasn't been enough Nyquil or Dayquil to make me behave like the adult I truly am. So in one final pathetic act I beg my inner psyche to not send me to school tomorrow!
