Last night was sleepless for me, for once, because of my own stomach pain. I guess I caught a bug or something and my stomach was giving me a fit. By morning I was pretty tired and irritable. I fully planned to spend much of my morning snuggling on the couch with Lu after Zachary had gone off to school. Getting him out the door turned out to be a problem.
Of course, its pouring rain out this morning and our backyard(we have to cross through to get to the bus stop) is practically marsh land. After getting Zachary loaded up with all his stuff and wearing a pretty gosh darn cute outfit, we headed out the back door. My last words to him were "Dont run the grass is slippery." Well that was his cue to start running. After about 10 feet....slip, splash! He was down on his back completely soaked through! Ahhhhh!
I hadnt even made it 3 steps from the door before we headed back in to get a change of clothes. I rushed to hopefully have him catch the bus, but that didnt happen. I took both kids back out front, loaded Lu in her car seat, then tried to load Zachary into his booster....squish. Turns out his jacket had gotten super wet and the inner material was soaked with muddy water that had now saturated the NEW pair of pants I put him in. So, BACK into the house we went.
I changed his pants, AGAIN, and loaded the kids into the van AGAIN. I am proud to say Zachary arrived at school on time with exactly 60 seconds to spare!
