So this morning started out pretty much like any other with my charge being dropped off about 6am ( I babysit a 5 year old), a groggy teenager whose step by step to waking up is almost an artform, two hyper happy dogs and a preteen who is still deciding whether to wake up or not.
Aside from the cold I have managed to house in my body everything was going routine wise.
Until my son shot back INTO the house 10 minutes after he left for his bus stop.
"MOM! Where's the phone! I NEED it NOW!"
-Whoa wait a minute! What's up and you are gonna miss your BUS!!!
"MOM! There is a lost puppy and I got it's number off thetagandIgottacallsothepuppywillbeokay!!!!"
-I'll call just GO! You'll miss your bus!
And out the door he goes. The number he gave me was bunk. Poor puppy. Nothin doin right?
Wrong.
"MOM! "
-Why are you back??? You are gonna miss your bus!
"I brought the puppy here so it would be safe. We have to find its home!! Besides I'll probably need a ride anyways."
Oh heavens.....
Well the good news is that his bus driver actually stopped by our house ( thankfully our house is on the route) so Aaron did na miss the bus. And I was able to successfully get the 3 month old puppy back to his family.
And this was about an hour after I had woken up......
Here in about thirty minutes I get to take the 5 year old to school and when I get back I have a 2 month old to watch........
So how is your Monday morning going?
