It Kills Me...

Ya know, sometimes I wanna just wake up in the morning and not worry about what time it is. I want to roll over, look at the clock and say 'shoot, it's only 8:30', don't have anywhere to be today! I want Slayder to wake me up when he gets up and climbs in my bed to 'cuddle' and watch 'hanny manny', as he calls it. However, that is NOT how it goes. Okay, for 2 morning a week, that is how it goes... but the other mornings go something like this:

• 6:09am - hit the snooze
• 6:18am - hit the snooze
• 6:27am - shit, I'm going to be late.
• 6:30am - Get me up, brush teeth, throw on clothes
• 6:35am - Get slayder up, put him on the couch (where he tries to stay asleep)
• 6:36am - Get stuff around for day
• 6:38am - Get Slayder dressed (as HE SCREAMS) and get out the door
• 6:48am - Turn onto McDevitt street in Vandercook to Slayder saying 'me no go to Aunt Casey's today mommy, me stay with you.'
• 6:49am - Explain to him for the 1,000,000th time that mommy has to go to work and that I will be back to get him when I'm done. He says 'no go work today mommy, please...'

It absolutely breaks my heart. Like seriously, a small piece of me dies each day. I am waiting for the day, I can be like... wait, I won't have to be like anything, cause we'll be snugglin in bed watchin Dora climb a mountain with her helpful little backpack!

Anyone who gets to be a stay at home mom, appreciate it, because some of us aren't that fortunate!
