The Covid who stole Christmas

Today, I picked up my 5 year-old son for Christmas break. We were on the way to the airport, talking about Santa and what we were going to do over the break when my fiancée called to tell me that she had been exposed to Covid-19. I took him home to his mom's and missed my flight. FML

This may be across state/country lines with a large distance between where the parent lives and where the child was picked up. Not ideal but people move after divorces/splits. Either way, sorry to hear this but thank you for keeping your son safe. It sucks but remember there is now light at the end of the tunnel and both of you living to see that day will make this setback a drop in the bucket. Hang in there. This will only be temporary.

Why were you even thinking of getting on a plane during a pandemic?

I dont understand why you're flying anywhere during a pandemic.
