Well, this day just keeps getting better and better.  After being woken up at 5 by my Hubby and the cat, things were going alright for a a while.  Then the children started getting up for school, and yet, things were going smoother than they have been.  Until it was time for P1 to brush her hair.  I guess she brushed her hair as well as she ever does and yet she was shockingly compliant when it was time for me to double check her hair and finish off the brushing.  She did not want a clip, bow, ponytail or other but that was no big surprise.  What was a surprise, or more like a shock really, was the hair on the top of her head that was no longer than 1 inch.  ONE INCH!!!!!! Then there were her bangs but I was seeing red by then so I excused myself to the other room.

You see, this is not the first, not the 2nd, but the THIRD time we have gone through with her!!!!!  Her father wanted to take her to get it cut and blended asap.  I said that I did not have time today to take her before I go to BlissDom tomorrow and she can just live with it until I get back when we would most likely cut it very short.  She needs to learn, dang it!!  I told her I hoped none of her friends laughed at her (that is a HUGE concern to her).

Then we went through the day 5 ritual of trying to get her to take her antibiotic.  Really fun.  The 2nd day I even had to follow through with my perrenial threat of ‘Either you take it like a big girl or I will have to lay you down on the floor and give it to you like a baby.’  Man did that suck!

I thought she was not going to be ready for the ‘On time car’ to school and then I would have had to take her…uuuggghhh but she got it together and left me with a parting, “And I Won’t Miss You Either!”  Gosh being a parent is great for your self image. ;0   P2 then managed to leave her lunch at home meaning I can either try to get it to her before she has lunch or let her buy it…leaning toward her buying it.

The crowning glory though has been that since I knew P1 had not had time to feed her fish in between rants, I thought I would let P3 feed him….only to find the fish dead with xx for eyes (you know, like in cartoons).

It can only get better…….right?

So what are your mornings like at your house??
