Failure or success?

Yesterday night my 6 year old son reminded me that he is going to his friends house after school, so I should write a note for the school bus. My 17 year old son, who usually picks up my car from my work after school to pick up his siblings and takes care of them after school and picks me up from work in the evening, reminded me that today I would need to pick them up because we were going out for dinner with a friend of mine! Failure or success? I mean my kids are fine, they are more reliable than me, so isn't my failure leading them to success?😅
