Why is it that every time you need to go somewhere, the morning is always a total cluster?!

I had a big day planned. We are moving this week and I am trying to get the house habitable. So Jack was going to his Aunt’s house for the day. We were going to get an early start.

He slept in until 8:30. Amazing right? But at the what cost.

His diaper had exploded. All of those crystals filled with pee went everywhere. All over the blankie that he can’t sleep without, the teddy, the sheets and mattress.

My husband is working nights, so he had just gotten into bed when I barged through the room to get to the bathroom for an emergency bath. I was running like a fool trying to get a bag packed for the day, while washing laundry and scrubbing the mattress.

As you can imagine, that is not a nice way to wake up, and Jack was out of sorts and crying all morning.

It is days like this that I am truly grateful for coffee, doughnuts, and Aunts and cousins who babysit 🖤
