Today there was Fay

For seven and a half years, I have had a child in tow 24/7, waiting for those days to do errands alone, lunch with friends and chat uninterrupted on the phone.  Today was the day to have that wish filled.  As it was Natalie's first day of  pre-school.  Eight hours a week for me, too cool!

As I woke my sleeping child for her big day, she screamed and cried, " my eyes are sleepy no school today".

Rain was pouring hard on the roof.  Her yells so loud I couldn't hear the siren warnings!  Great a tornado is coming.  What do I do,  head for safety or dress her for school?  For that I'd be a fool.

Thankfully the tornado had passed.  We jumped in the car,  I'm not wearing this shirt she sassed.

I so wanted today to go well , instead I feel like I'm in h_ _ _ !  The traffic driving there was a bear, the parking a dreadful sight.  My freedom was finally near  all I had to do was stay calm and not shed a tear.  

I am a scrapper you see, pictures of every special occasion are precious to me.  My son the camera guy maxed out my cameras memory.  A cute picture of Nat is not to be.

Checked into her class so sweet as can be with teachers who care as if they were me.

AS I leave tears fall down my face-it was with mixed emotion that I leave this place.  Our morning unfolded, I didn't picture it that way.  Well, because today there was Fay!

It's not the best rhyme..but you get the picture!
