- Coffee and Quiet.
- No more Nickelodeon.
- Lunch when I want it.
- Peeing in peace.
- Not having to entertain people… all. day. long.
- Getting up at the ass crack of dawn.
- The ultimate mom fail…Poptarts in the car.
- No more playmates of my own.
- Letting someone else be the beneficiary of their smiles.
- Watching, heart quietly breaking, as they take yet another step away from me.

Im right there with you. My youngest is in prek half day and I can’t focus on work because it’s too quiet in the house.

I tried to tell myself that I’d be more productive when I had peace. So far, it isn’t looking so good. Hope you succeed where I’ve failed, my friend.
Yeah, I was fine until the last three…now I’m bawling again. Thanks for that.
Glad to be of service (sniffle)
Number 10 is the one that gets me. I do so well until I drive away from the school. Then I lose it.

Yes. To all accounts. Especially that last one. Your little ones are growing up so darn fast!
tomorrow would’ve been my first attempt at a fully productive day but Rob decided to take a 1/2 day off. I’ll try Wednesday LOL

I get today through Wednesday. Then Marc is home because of the dang Grand Prix. Grumble grumble.
I am a homeschool mom so I don’t send them off. As I read your list I am both jealous and happy that I am not in your spot;).

I applaud you for homeschooling. There is a part of me that longs to be able to do that. It bows to the other three quarters of me that knows I wouldn’t survive!
