J2 skips class today. the school gives me a call.
school (bright cheery voice): hi mrs -- how are you?
me (restrained tone): i'm fine thank you.
school (bright cheery voice): and J2 isn't in school today...!
me (cautiously): um. would you like me to say i know she's at home?
school (bright cheery voice): oh no! this call is about something entirely different! we need you to make sure she attends school on friday, for the award ceremony! but don't tell her why!
me (bright and cheery): how nice! thank you! i'll try!
