Mother Of The Year- Not

The Surface Area of a Penny? The science fair is coming up. Chloe's project's rough draft was due today.

Guess what... I totally forgot about it. We both talked about it all weekend-turned in everything so far (not much). We decided we would finish it on Sunday since we had all day- with our new schedule- to get things done. Well, we didn't do it Sunday- see post below.

This morning I didn't think a thing about it. It was piano Monday so off to early morning lessons before school, helping Trent with his homework & reading in the car. After the kids left for school I talked to Karen who mentioned helping her daughter take her project to school this morning.

I FROZE

I knew poor Chloe was in school at that very moment in a panic. We had completely forgotten. Well, good for Chloe (who can be quite anxious) she came home, wasn't in a panic (at least not by after school), was just fine, although she skipped ballet to stay home & get it done -& she wasn't feeling too well. Heck she was most of the way done anyhow. Her teacher said- no problem it was just the rough draft bring it in tomorrow - she knew we had been working on it. Brett helped her finish up tonight.

She is such a great kid- growing up fast!

Way to go Chloe for being flexible. Way to go teacher for also being flexible!

Way to go Mom? Well - at least I'm not doing the whole project for her. That's something isn't it?

*have you ever forgotten to finish a project?

*are you surprised that my kids won't have full ride scholarships to college?

*is Monday morning busy at your house?
