Mommy/Daddy Thought - September 21

Getting out the door in the morning…

I was standing with a mom at the Kindergarten door yesterday and she was looking frazzled.  I became her listening ear for a moment as she mentioned that it was just so hard to get out the door on time with her kids and that each morning feels like chaos. 

I can relate.  Our mornings were exactly like that until we came up with a routine.  Getting 3 girls anywhere with a specific time deadline can be tough!  Especially if mommy and daddy are headed straight to work also!

We sat down one day and “spelled out” exactly what the expectations were in the morning.  Then we stuck to it!  We don’t make any changes!  The mornings are now like a well-oiled machine and we get to school with CLEAN clothes on, BOTH shoes on, hair that is COMBED, backpacks FOUND and smiles on our faces.  I LOVE our routine!

Maybe something like this can make your day flow smoother…
