Back to School

We ended up having one day of school this week...friday.

I actually loved the week off of school, probably as much as the kids did.

I love the freedom of no school! even with no electricity (though I'd rather have electricity of course)

So Friday morning I wake up at 7:40 and realize that we have slept in

I wake Carter up and tell him that he has to hurry because we slept in and he only has a few minutes to get ready

He gets up and eats and gets ready pretty fast

But we are both still pretty relaxed

I go into the bathroom to get ready and he calls through the door that we should go

I call out "Well get going!"

"I need you to drive me"

"Carter, walk up to the bus stop.  If you miss it, I will drive you but hurry up and you will make it."
"Uh, mom, it's 8:00"

He usually catches the bus at 7:00

and the key here is that somehow I was thinking that is WAS 7:00 not 8:00

"What?  You mean you have one day of school this week and you are an hour late???"
"yep."

"I thought it was 7:00, not 8:00"

  "I was wondering why you weren't freaking out and telling me to hurry..."

So I drive the boy to school.

And I win mother of the year award, again!

I'm so awesome.
