Can she do it???

So, I have to confess, I yell too much in the morning. My alarm goes off and after hitting snooze three times, I finally get out of bed at 6:30. This morning, I schleped on a hoodie and got the kids up. Everything was good and happy till breakfast. But, once we got into the mudroom, it's like my brain switched into spaz mode and I'm like "hurry, hurry, hurry". So, the toothbrushes are flying, and I'm trying to part Paige's hair while she's reaching to give Grace her bottle, and Cole is wandering off, Lily is taking the hair things I need for Paige's hair. So, in all these chaos, I'm thinking, "I have to leave by 7:25 or else I have to go into the school!" That would be very embarrassing because I'm still in my pijamas, with crazy hair and no make-up. The humiliation. So, I start getting louder, thinking this will grease the wheels a little. But no! The kids don't notice my increasing stress, and they slowly wonder into the mudroom and just stand there. A 7-year old and a 5-year old should know they need to get their shoes, coats and backpacks on, right? I'm like "Kids get your stuff on!" "Let's go!" "Coats, backpacks, shoes, please" For the Love! Anyhow, that's my typical morning, I send the kids to school thinking their Mom is an idiot. So, since it's Monday, my new challenge is to get up at 6:00. Have a few quiet minutes to myself to read scriptures and then get everyone up. Instead of reading after my morning freak-out. I'm not going to raise my voice at all this week! All you other Moms know how hard this is, but I'm sick of it. I'll keep you posted.
