I got up this morning on time and showered and got ready and everything was going great. I woke the boys at 7:43am, I opened the door, turned on the light, opened the curtains and blinds and no one yelled that they wanted to open them instead (this is usually an issue with Edward). I thought "wow things are going really well today". I should have known better. Before the boys would come down they wanted to find both TAG pens and they thought they were both in their room. We searched and I finally told them we should go downstairs and I would search there while they ate. I got them their breakfast and I started looking for the missing pen. I did not find it so I headed back upstairs to look for it. I wasn't gone 30 seconds when I heard "crash". I yelled down "did you spill something?" and Ethan replied "made a mess! made a mess!". I flew down the stairs (still no pen) and said "who made a mess?" and of course Ethan says "Edward did". lol I have no idea who did it but there was orange juice all over the floor, 2 chairs, the carpet at the back door, the back door, the table and both of them.
I have our MWF schedule down perfect. When something like this occurs it is hard to recover so I spent the next 40 minutes rushing around trying to feed them, clean up the mess, get them dressed, brush their hair and teeth and clean up the mess some more. They did get to school on time and I came back home and mopped the floor again. I think it is still a little sticky but I am out of pads for my steam mop. I will wash them tonight and mop again in the morning. I would get them up earlier but if they have too much free time in the morning they get into stuff or fight. Plus they are not morning people and need all the sleep they can get. I am requesting afternoon kindergarten due to this (plus I can sleep in too! lol).
Five minutes before I was due to go pick up the boys the phone rings and it is the father of the boy Marisa is not supposed to be seeing. Needless to say I was late picking the boys up. I was the last parent in the parking lot when we left but I did see another parent enter as we left. They were the only ones from their class still there. I felt so bad. I did that to Jessica one time when she was in Kindergarten and boy did she let me have it! lol
And the TAG pen. Ethan found it sometime during my 40 minute mad dash around the house. I have no idea where though. :)
Just another one of the those days...
