As I've blogged about before...Some mornings, especially when Randy is at work, Wyatt gets up about 5 minutes after me. This morning I didn't even get to finish brewing my coffee before I heard my junior elephant coming down the steps.
After some cuddle time, I went upstairs to take a shower. The DirecTV guy was coming to fix the TV (Some time between 8-12) and, of course, Autumn was coming over. Well, as I get out of the shower at about 7:40, I hear a deep and very grown up voice calling from my foyer "Ma'am?"
After yelling down that I'd be down in a minute, I grabbed the first clothes I could find, and, hair still in a towel, went downstairs to greet the TV man. (Really? Since when do they come EARLY) Then I sat Wyatt down to have the stranger danger talk with him. "But Mom, I DID know him! It's the TV fixer guy!" Did I mention that I haven't had coffee yet?
So I got dressed, Autumn got here, realized Wyatt needed something that starts with the letter D for show and tell. He's downstairs looking through the toybox when he starts screaming that there's a spider. Clearly, he doesn't know ANYTHING about his mother. I told him to step on it. I was not going down there. No way. He finally comes up, without the dog.. I had to go down and get it. In the basement. Where the spider was.
We finally get out the door at 8:26. Wyatt's school is 6 minutes away and starts at 8:30. Not a big deal, so we're a minute late. We can make it! Oh, no, there's a school bus. And look, it's stopping at every other house! Look at the lights flashing! And where is my travel mug of coffee? On the kitchen table.
But, I have TV now.
I love this REAL LIFE story! It really made me smile!
