Mondays are always crazy. We have school in the morning, then starting at 1:30, there are ballet classes, followed by more ballet and tap classes while music classes take place up the hill at Papa and Grandma's. I participate with the adult tap class. Deer takes ballet and tap. Duke & Dessert take tap. Dime takes guitar lessons, and Deer takes flute lessons. Dot teaches the ballet lessons. It is busy! Then around 6, I leave for CAP with my two boys and 3 other boys while lessons are still going strong. There is always something going on at CAP, so I'm busy all evening and arrive home about 9:45. That's a normal Monday.
Today was extra crazy as a Mom that usually comes and helps with stuff in the kitchen was home sick, and another Mom who frequently is there and is a help was also home sick. I had agreed to prepare supper for the crew (usually the two moms take turns, as they are so sweet), and I wanted to have cookies for Christmas, but wow, it was a zoo of a day. I picked up some kids (above mom was sick - so glad I'm better, I'd much rather pick up). I made the cookie batter last night, but forgot to bake the cookies. I went from one thing to the next all day, and never had a chance to bake them. We were trying to figure out costume questions with two classes, plus other stuff. I meant to make a salad, but just ran out of time. I made the spagetizza (which turned out great - if I do say so myself), but didn't get anything else made for with it. No one complained or seemed to notice. (such a nice crew) I came home late from CAP (10:15 - busy night) and looked at Darling who is still up and way too chatty and realized I never got her dressed today. She wore red sweat pants and a red patterned sweatshirt over her pj top, so it didn't look too bad, but still!! Things I never thought I'd do as a mom. Not the leaving the child in pj's all day (though I'd never dream of doing that when the kids were young), but leaving the child in pj's all day and having tons of company over (I still can't believe myself).

She will not even remember it...she probably thought she slept in her clothes...my kids do that all the time! I know I would much rather be in my pj's all day, especially when it is so cold!
