OK! Today should have been Mandy's first day of pre K but we had some rough storms last night and this morning leading to flooding due to construction at her school. She woke up at 6 (her school doesn't start until 9)and said "I need to have breakfast for my first day of school". I let her know it was very early and she could go back to sleep for a bit to which she said, "I am a little sleepy but don't want to go back to bed." Ok, got it....I said "You must be excited" to which she replied... "I AM!" Just have to love her. So with our extra time we reread her bedtime story from the previous night, got dressed, picked out bows (didn't match), earrings (didn't match), necklace and shoes....and OFCOURSE we had to paint nails (two different colors in a pattern...pink green pink green...her words). OMG she cracks me up!!! Then Bubba woke up and once he was ready for school they had the conversation in the previous entry. Once he got off we headed to our special breakfast (at Waffle House, her choice) and while there we got the call that school was cancelled...that did NOT go over well, she was so SAD! We were lucky Aunt Kelly called to give us the heads up so I was able to get her to Aunt Kelly and still be at work when I promised...WHEW. She got over having to play with "boys" all day and had a great time "playing boyfriend/girlfriend with little Jake ALL day". All in all it all worked out but I will be a little sad that this was the last first day drop off I will get to have and it got rained out....now, I will put on my big girl panties and grow up ;)
The MADNESS of a working mom and keeping up with the fast paced life of her family of four!
