I know you other Mummas can relate. 7:30 this morning, child #1 has a big meltdown over something that was minor to us but a big deal to him. *insert Console*  7:45 - boys shoes, socks, oils, pack bags, leaving in 15 mins.  8:00 - in the car. Boys got your lunch box, water bottle, brain back etc... child #2 " Oh wait... I forgot my candy canes and Christmas cards" *runs back inside to get them* Note: It takes 20 mins to get to school and they boys like to be there at 8:20 because bell rings at 8:30.

Me " Got your swimming bag Piper?" piper "Oh no.. its home?" sigh.. rings Dad, "you coming to town in the next hour?" Nope hes not.
