Today, was Zoo day. Soleil’s class was heading to the zoo. So, we all got up early, watched mommy take a shower because G-d FORBID she enjoy a shower in private. Then run off to play. Then after mommy warns that the bus will leave to the zoo without us, the get dressed and pick up toys. Daddy skypes from Prague. We talk and joke while mommy gets lunches and milks together (made them the night before, just need to sort it out). Go to get frozen waffles out of the freezer for breakfast, shit, no waffles.
Give the kids frozen go-gurts for breakfast. Blue and Pink.

Quick, get them in the car. Quick run back for doggie and kitty (stuffed, of course), Quick, get on the hwy. Quick, curse at the traffice while the girls are behaving perfectly. Really.

Get to daycare 5 mintues late. Discover preschool is a mess and the kids are running around like mad. Get Soleil sunscreened,kissed and hugged. Get Luna to her room. Discover it is pizza day. Give Luna a dollar for her pizza slice and then realize that she now has enough food to feed a small army. Great.

Take a deep breath as a leave, but the co-director starts talking to me about nothing in particular. Then rush (RUSH) to Dunkin’ Donuts to get the much needed caffine in my system…..

I feel that I am IN the zoo.

On a great note, Sparky and I are having lunch tomorrow as I am heading her way! Yippie!
