Keeping Up

I am lucky to be able to be in Indiana with a few of my grandchildren. Today is my first day in charge and I am glad the kids are good helpers.

Oops #1--Woke up late after a short night and almost missed the bus

Oops #2--Got lost taking Brody to preschool

Oops #3--Got lost picking Brody up from preschool

Oops #4--Let Brody take a book to bed when he laid down for his nap and he forgot to go to sleep

Oops #5--Dallin had fractions for homework and I knew he was doing the math wrong, but needed to go into the other room with a pencil and paper to work a simple problem to figure it out

Oops #6--After homework was finished started to breathe a sigh of relief for the afternoon to calm down when Dallin reminded me he had soccer practice this evening

All this and the parents have only been gone for 12 hours--I am doing great.

Not to worry:
  • Dallin's alarm works and he is very responsible so we made the bus.
  • I know my way around town better after a tour of the city on the way to and from preschool.
  • I was awarded a few minutes of snuggle and rocking time with a 4 year old angel who was able to relax and take a little nap.
  • Dallin's homework is complete and correct.
  • Dinner is in the oven and we will be ready to go in an hour.

Disaster sidetracked--All is well
