Oh, yes, I am THAT mother…

My daughter’s school is a 15-minute drive from our home.  (Okay, it SHOULD be a 15-minute drive from our home.)  So every now and then (read: at least once a week) she eats breakfast on the way.  Today was one of those days, and to be honest, I had even planned it that way.  Here’s what I didn’t plan for:

The morning started off just fine.  We were doing great.  She was dressed.  She was ready….

I was not.

Then the baby started crying, and it was all downhill from there.

I managed to get them both into the car at 8:10.  (Yes, school starts at 8:00.)  We were well on our way, and I was about to take a deep breath and relax when a small voice from the backseat said….

“Mom, you forgot to give me my breakfast.”

Yes, oh yes, I did.

I knew what her breakfast was.  I knew where her breakfast was.  And, late as we were, I knew I had to turn around and go get it.  Did I mention we were running really late?  Did I mention that it’s a 15-minute drive to her school?  And, did I mention that she waited until we were almost halfway there to remind me?

So, if it makes you feel any better today, I was the wet-headed, no make-up-on mom wearing the inside-out shirt (yes, you read that right) pushing my daughter into her classroom at 8:30 this morning.  And, I’ll be the (hopefully) hair-brushed, wearing-at-least-a-little-lip-gloss mom apologizing profusely to her teacher this afternoon.  Good times.
