I'm a mommy - What's your super power?

Wake up.

Get breakfast on the table.

Get kid dressed and ready to go.

Get self dressed and ready to go.

Walk the dog.

Pick up the house a bit.

Put away breakfast mess.

Check the calendar.

Make my 'to do' list.

Check it twice.

Walk the dog again.

Run out the door like a wild woman.

Take the kid to school and/or daycare.

Fly into the office like a bat outta...well...you know, a minivan.

Work, work, work.

Pick up the kiddo from daycare.

Run by the store (if necessary).

Finally pull into the drive way.

Slowly drag myself into the house knowing how much work waits behind the door.

Put down purse.

Pour juice and snack.

Help kiddo start his homework.

Walk the dog.

Clean up a bit more from the morning madness.

Walk the dog.

Throw the laundry in the dryer.

Write some checks and put postage on some mail.

Think about:

Scrubbing the bathroom, mopping, vacuuming, folding and hanging clothes, and reading the Bible.

Remember all the things forgotten:

Play time. Tickle time. Cuddle time. Being silly. Phone calls that needed to be made. Updating the calendar. Organizing this. Throwing away that.

Eventually succumbing to:

turning on the TV and watching The Office, laying on the couch, then going to bed way too late feeling blessed to be able to do it all again tomorrow.

The Lord is so good to have given me a home to clean, a husband to love, a son to care for, a dog to poop on the carpet, and most of all - His Amazing Grace!
