I woke this morning a bit earlier...maybe deep down I knew something was going to happen!? But I got up any ways, started the coffee, the kids lunch and threw in a load of laundry(trying to get it done before 7AM......cheaper hydro rates). I then sat in the living room, in my Ladies chair by the window and glanced out at the quiet street...no noise anywhere. I got two mugs of coffee into me before the kids woke up! Then it was OVER!!
Madness began.......Katie threw up three times(only once in the toilet)...hence more loads of laundry and the higher rate of hydro one must pay! Katie then plugged the toilet...with a wad of tissues! I got a plastic bag, put my hand into and in the toilet bowl I went...and grabbed it out! Josh fussed over having a shower...and then when he got out, complained of stomach pains...to the point where he had a hissy fit and cried and slapped the table. His problem was HUNGER! Or so I think.....so far he is still at school! Then there is Alex.....all he wanted was milk and being able to play with his cars! During this I still found the time to do the dishes and tidy various things...while having my third and last mug of coffee.
I got Josh out the door on time for school....first showing him how to use the umbrella and telling him(like all Mothers do) don't poke someones eye out! And here we are now......its all quiet again...Katie is in bed watching movies, Alex is watching Treehouse and playing with his cars.....and the house is clean and organized and Josh is at school. Calm before another storm??? Its funny how we have these rushes...to the point where we think "what did I do, having these three kids...was I crazy!?" And then it passes and everything is good again.......
