A Day in the Life

Please support my efforts to raise money for the leukemia society by clicking HERE.  I will select one name at random from the donors to receive a free framed photograph of their choosing.

I carry Arlo's two ton carseat out and clip him into the car.
Back up to the porch to encourage Auggie to COME ON!!!
He has to walk down the hill at the side of the house first, but
finally makes his way to the car, but he's shouting because his
voice echoes down the street and he's enjoying it.
I'm buckling him in and he's screaming
HEY
HEY
HEY
at the top of his lungs and listening for the
echo. (screaming right in my ear I might add)
I look everywhere for my keys.
I know I have them because I opened the car door.
Back over to Arlo's side- did I leave them there?
HMM
Are they still in the front door?
In Auggie's bag?
I wanna scream

Finally I get the idea to check in Auggie's car seat.
SUCCESS- he's sitting on them.
I dig around and pull and off pops the stupid key tag
for my Y membership.
Crap.
I find a sharp thing in the console of the car and punch a
new hole.
sigh
FINALLY we are ready to go. 
Off to nursery school.
Arlo out of the car.
Auggie out of the car.
Haul the world's heaviest carseat and the worlds most
dawdling toddler up the path into the building and up a
flight of stairs to his classroom.
Kiss goodbye.
Haul Arlo back down flight of stairs.

Arlo out of car and carry 300 ton car seat up path
and up flight of what are now the longest stairs in the world
Walk in the classroom and Auggie hits the floor
NOOOO
He loves nursery school and doesn't wanna leave.
I let him sulk on the floor for a few minutes and then he
gets up and gives me a hug and kiss.
"ok Buddy, Let's go!"
I trudge with the 500 ton carseat and the out of it with
exhaustion toddler down the flight of stairs and across
the parking lot.

Downstairs to let blind incontinent dog back in the house.
