My goodness! If you have more than three children and manage to have them all involved in an activity in addition to school, my hat goes off to you! This week has been my first experience in having the older two in different schools as well as all three taking a fun class, and I am absolutely exhausted.
Oh, did I mention that neither child's school has buses? This means two different drop-off times, two different pick-up times, and a six-month-old baby who never gets to sleep because of it. Yesterday, she was so tired that she didn't know whether she was coming or going!
I knew this would be my biggest challenge as a mother of three. How do you manage to get all of them where they need to be without losing your mind or succumbing to road rage? When I really started to feel like I had lost my mind, I reminded myself that this is only Week One. None of us have really settled into a schedule yet. I guess I'll give it two more weeks before I commit myself to the funny farm.
Actually, I would love to hear from some of you about your strategies for juggling multiple schedules. Every little bit helps!
