Oh, yes, I can relate!
ReplyDeleteSeriously. I grab the kids then realize, oh wait, I might need my keys. Oh, and my phone. Wait, it's almost time for Asa to eat? Milk. Snack. *whew*
ReplyDeleteWith me it's 1,3,5,7-10, get everyone in the van, get everyone buckled, start the van, stop the van, go back in the house and get #4. LOL
ReplyDeleteLove it!! So incredibly true over here too!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, so familiar...
ReplyDeleteRecently, our scenario has been to get out the door with hands full, get kids in the car, go back in the house (reset the alarm), get back in the car, realize I forgot something else (reset the alarm), get back in the car...
Sometimes I wonder why I even try to go anywhere!!!
What a great post!! Any mom can relate to that list.
ReplyDeleteI blog to encourage Christian moms and inspire them with God's Word. I have raised and released 2 sons and now they are building their own households of faith. Stop by often for a good dose of it.
I teach a Bible study for MOMS and host one online. We are doing Ephesians called "High Stepping in Heavenly Places." You can watch DVDs, download podcasts and study notes, and interact with other moms here at http://highsteppinginheavenlyplaces.wordpress.com. We would love to have you!!! Blessings.
Every. Stinkin'. Day.
ReplyDeleteSo, I put child proof lock thingie on the door to exit so they can't leave without me. Or until I let them out. Does that sound like they are the dogs? Might not be too terribly far off... Oh NO!!
Too funny! Love this list! I think all Moms relate!
ReplyDeletei can VERY MUCH relate! especially "6. Remind myself what I was looking for" ! i can not even think straight when they are ready to go and asking me a million questions as i'm trying to gather our stuff. i tell my kids "Be quiet so Mommy can focus on getting everything together!" :D great list, Mama.
