Flu bug

Landon was up sick numerous times on Wednesday night, so we decided not to send him to school on Thursday. Thursday afternoon two girls from his class (and also in our ward) stopped by our house, along with the mother of one of the girls, to see how he was doing. Apparently the word at school was that he had fallen down, gotten a big hole in his knee, and was at Primary Children's Hospital in surgery. Of course, that was not the case, and we assured the girls that Landon just had a stomach bug. Looking to quelch the rumor, and reassure Landon's teacher, Jessica sent an email to her explaining why Landon was not in school that day. She got a reply from Landon's teacher telling her that Landon wasn't the only one out sick that day -- in fact, 12 students were out sick on Thursday. Twelve students out of 24 in the class! Crazy!
