Ready, Set, No!

I'm doing so much "running around" with the kids this summer, Im contemplating getting my chauffer's license. Well, not really. Today I dropped off the two older kids to school, took the little girls to the salon with me for my appointment, back to school to pick up Noah after art class, then to the library for story time, then to McD's to play, and back to school once more to pick up McKenzie, before bringing all four home to have lunch. After lunch it was time to play with the two dogs outside while I grabbed a bite for myself and cleaned up,and back inside where they all finger painted...everything, including the table, chairs, floor, bathroom fictures and themselves.

Finally the time has arrived - my favorite time of day - QUIET TIME!

And while this may come as a surprise, the only part of the day I would have changed was the storyteller at the library. Dressed in her overalls and pig tails, she spoke with a saccharine tone, repeating the phrase, "Okay boys and girls..." after each sentence. As in, "Who would like to have a dinosaur for a pet boys and girls?" And, " Okay boys and girls, who would like to dance with a dinosaur?" ACK!!!
