Grass_Hopper 18263 Report post Posted August 30, 2010 Ok, this is a little gift to all Cerbites, but espescially Moms and Dads going thru craziness of back to school on Monday... I woke up this morning at 5:30 (this is usually the time I go to bed...) with a very clear list of things to check before she goes back to school... In blue, you'll find MY list... Unfortunetly, in red, you'll find my DAUGHTER's... 1. Wake up with my first coffee and cigarette of the week, in the backyard, in the rising sun... 1. Wake up half hour in advance, just to make sure mommy is awake to wake me up... Here goes for my cold coffee, and did anyone mentionned a cigarette? 2. Prepare her lunch, while she's preparing her breakfast (she is 9 and allowed to use the toaster, btw...) Stay still infront of the computer so mom's rushing to prepare my lunch AND my breakfast... Can I eat something, eventually, pleassse? 3. Take out my daughter's clothes so she get ready to school... Argue on the color, the pants, the dress or the skirt, blouse or shirt Never thought uniforms could be so complicated... 4. Braid her hair in french braids, so I make sure she's not getting any lice... (Check up at school is tomorrow, and she has her hair to her waist. Don't want to go thru this ever again...) Make sure mom understands that she'll never braid my hair again... I won on this one! 5. Going thru the school ist, just to make sure everything is in the bag... Going thru the bag, just to make sure everything is on the list... (And for sure, everything lying in front of the door...) Pick up all single items to put them back in the bag... Finally, all this ended up quite perfectly. Since yesterday at night she had made up very clear that it was'nt cool anymore for her mother to drive her to school, she preffered to go by bike, but now that she's gone, it's now that I realize HOW MUCH MY KID GROW FAST, AND EVENTHOUGHT IT WAS A REAL CIRCUS THIS MORNING, THIS WILL BE PART OF SOUVENIRS THAT WILL NEVER COME BACK... TO ALL THOSE MOMS AND DADS SENDING THEIR KIDS TO SCHOOL THIS MORNING, I WISH YOU A BEAUTIFUL BACK TO SCHOOL!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
