This morning

As always this morning we were running late. I asked Russell why his flutaphone wasn't in his back pack. He said first he wanted to give me a concert so he played "Lean on Me" and then sang it. How could a mom stay mad even when she was going to miss her train again?

Then he droppped his birthday cupcakes and blamed me. We were driving his friend A to school and I scared her when I screamed his name as they began to fall. Oh well. She said her heart stopped. When did second graders get so smart?

When I finally got to the train I realized I forgot to give him money for the mother's day sale. Called his dad (who should be paying for my present anyway), crisis averted.
