Up in the morning, get the kids off to school.
"Son you can't take the rat"..."I know it's a dumb rule."
"Honey, get up"...The heater's down and we're cold."
"Alright, just a minute"...a blanket unfolds.
"Go change your skirt"....Wear something warmer."
"Where is your coat?"...It's at the Farmer's?!"
"Honey get up"...."It's so c-o-o-ld in here"
"Alright...just a minute." Can't get it in gear.
"Wear your old coat."...Missy those shoes won't do."
"I got your lunches and Son..where are your boots?"
"Honey get up"..."It's about time to go."
"Alright...just a minute" It's starting to snow.
"Kids...go get your books and get in the truck."
"Do you have your money?"...."Okay, here's a buck."
"Honey get up"...."You gotta whole lot to do."
"Babe....go without me."...."Hey"...."I love you."

This was great! I could feel your rushing around, and all the craziness that goes with it. Nice job reflecting a day in the life of a busy family.
