Time change


Its been a busy week and so it did fly by pretty fast. As every week has lately. Monday though, I did not think we would make it through the week. After the time change Sunday night, you would have thought the world was going to end! Both kids had the worst Monday morning. K wanted to draw a picture on the car window in the dew, Bubs messed it up & it was all over. There were tears all the way to school - of course thats really not that far! But we drove to Bubs school first, just so she could shake it off. Once we got to school she raced me to the front door. But once inside, she started to cry again. This was the only time I could remember her crying when I dropped her off for school. She wanted mommy to stay & play. Miss J had to pull her aside so I could leave. Once I got to work, I called to check in on her. She was quiet, but no longer crying. I think "Springing Forward" really threw her off!


That night, the kids were just bouncing off the walls, fighting over toys. By 7:30 I told them it was time for bed. (Really, with the hopes of getting them both in bed by their normal time - 8!) Bubs had something to say though. He looked outside & said "Its not bedtime mommy, its not dark outside." Its only March! I just can't wait until summer when its still light out at 9pm!

If I ever heard a testimonial against the time change, you've got it! Why do they still do that to us???
