I always think one day I will get really organized and my days will turn into a smooth running machine instead of running around putting out one fire after another and feeling like I'm never completing anything. But alas, it doesn't seem to be happening. Here's a small portion of my day today:
I got Justin down for a nap, he's coming down with another cold and has been a bit fussy so I rush to my desk to fill out some of Zach's school paperwork and start him on some Math. While he is working on Math I begin a grocery list (our fridge is getting ridiculously bare.) He finishes his first Math page, I grade it while he takes his time test. Then I hear Cami say, "Mommy, I put it in my diaper but it fell out." "What fell out, Cami?" "The pee." Sure enough her diaper is sagging to her knees, oops, guess she was due for a change. Fortunately the diaper has wonderfully captured almost all the mess so I'm able to quickly clean her up and return to my task. Zach has disappeared by now so I call him back to remind him we're not done with Math. Fortunately Zach works quickly so school requires very little time. He has read the first 4 books of the Chronicles of Narnia this week already so if I don't get to spend much time with him, he keeps growing educationally. Well, I'm back to work to see if I can start some laundry before any more distractions come my way.
