Breakfast: the girls and I had a curious conversation about the current prospects for women in the workforce. They decided to personally contribute to the advancement of their gender by becoming a mermaid and a princess.

On the way to school, Elise had a big burp, which turned into throwing up all over herself.  Nothing a few wipes can’t fix.

I had a few minutes between appointments, so I decided to luxuriously apply makeup.  Of course this happened in the driver’s seat of my minivan, while I was nursing.  Luxurious nonetheless.

Came home, and in the time it took for me to brush my teeth, the girls took down every single coat, snow pant, rain coat and vest from the hall closet… and hid all the shoes and boots in there too.

What kind of special joy does the afternoon hold?  I won’t hold my breath… but maybe a basement flood??

Kidding!  But I definitely see a glass of wine in my future.
