How does your facility handle holidays??Looking for advice on a problem.

I work doing paperwork mom-fri. I never work holidays unless I chose to pick them up. I work in a nursing home. The other day the DNS told me that unless she found an RN to work Christmas her and I would need to share it. Here's the catch-she is the RN and I'm an LPN. She says we'll share it because she is physically unable to do a med pass-so sharing it means I'll do the work while she sits all day. Sunday (Christmas this year) is not my normal scheduled day and my husband has a second job that he does evenings and weekends when I'm off so I can have the kids. There's nobody to watch them Xmas day for a 7-3 shift-they are older 12 and 14 but that's not the point. The DNS said bring the kids with me. Do I have a valid point being sunday is not my scheduled day? She told me I had to do it and I said no but she put us on the schedule anyway. Any advice?????Thanks

Take your kids with you and enjoy the day.
