So much to do...one person to hold

Has anyone ever had a MILLION things to do one day? You wake up with a plan...1. eat breakfast 2. super quick shower 3. start tackling the list of things that NEED to get done before 5pm. Sounds great, however, your child is not aware of your list or the time crunch you are in and sits at your feet crying, begging to be held.

So, what do you do? Throw the list out the window, sit on the couch and hold your very needy baby.

That is my life today. I have class tonight and am not prepared at all to teach. I figured I could throw some toys down by the computer for Nora to play with and she would at least give me 30 minutes of work time before she needed my attention. I was mistaken...she gave me less than 30 seconds.

Oh well, what is really more important? Obviously, Nora. She is finally taking a nap and I am about to go prepare so my students don't think I put everything off until the last minute (which, I usually don't). Maybe I can wow them tonight with my exciting activities. We'll see.

Hey Dallas,
What a cutie! I've enjoyed reading the posts on what's going on in your life. You're getting me excited to join the stay-at-home mom club! We don't know what we're having, but your mother/daughter friend post was truly moving - thank you for sharing that.
