I can't wait each morning for the door to close behind them. The moments my kids are out of the house and out of sight I can finally breathe. I stop chanting "Get out get out get out!" in my mind and sing happily out the window "Bye! Love you-see you later!"

I can think about how much I love them and not how annoying it is searching (again) for two pairs of socks each morning and finding one hundred non matching socks. Even when I buy a bag of socks, within weeks they morph into some other size and shape. Seams become stiff. Heels become scratchy.

I run to my computer to start my day. Emails. Celebrity blogs. News. Weather.

My to do list. Hmmm...what to put off first?
