Default Should I close tomorrow?

I really don't know if I should close tomorrow. I've been sick with the cold/flu this weekend and still have a fever of 100.2, feeling achy and blowing my nose constantly. I know I probably should close but I feel really bad about leaving the parents to find other arrangements. Would you close?

You should always hold yourself to the same rules you do daycare families.

If you have a fever, you should close.

You don't want to expose all the kids and have them get sick too.

Plus a day of rest will help you recover twice as fast.

Take the day off, rest and get better.
