Well, I think I may have found a babysitter. Now comes the moment I’ve been waiting almost a year for–Mom’s Day Out! Five glorious hours without my kids!
Don’t get me wrong; I love my kids. BUT–after a year of being with them 24-7, I seriously need a break. Since this is going to be a weekly ritual, I need to figure out what to do first. Do I:
-Take a nap without having hardback books and toys thrown at my head
-Eat a meal without having to stop every five minutes to nurse a baby, while “sharing” half of it with a toddler who salivates over it, takes two bites, and then won’t touch it
-Read a book without pictures or rhyming text
-Get a mani/pedi
-Catch a movie
-Take in a Broadway matinee
-Buy fabric
-Crochet
Decisions, decisions. I’ll let everyone know how it went
