"wait on the carpet by the front door!!!!!!!!"


We are done.....another week of soccer camp, finished! Man its a challenge to get three people fed, ready, snacks made and packed and geared up to be out of the house by 8:15 am five mornings in a row!! Noah sure loves his soccer camp, but who's idea is it to start at 9 am, at Town Centre in Coquitlam!! (wink). I wink, because that person would be my husband.....he is gone, alone by 7:30 am, he misses the chaos, and leaves the channel on TreeHouse, does he have any idea how distracting that is for a 3 year old that's trying to finish his eggs and toast in a timely manner, ha. But we sure do love what he does, it allows Noah to have a BLAST for a week with buddies at soccer camp, Coquitam Metro Ford Soccer Camp!

I think as soon as you become a mom, you learn a lot about the importance of timing and organization, and it definitely gets tested when you add on more children. You think you have one ready, then you find the other playing tea set, or puzzles, then you realize they haven't brushed their teeth, nor have YOU brushed your teeth! Your stress level rises and before you know it, you are yelling for everyone to "wait on the carpet by the front door!!!" After saying, "okay lets go" about 10 times, you have the keys and you are out the door...once the kids are buckled in, and you get yourself in the front seat, SHIT you realize you forgot your coffee.....out you go again, lock the car door (someone might come and take the kids) run inside, grab your to-go Tim Hortons cup, and you're off 8:29 am...thank goodness the clock in the truck is about 10 minutes fast! You can breathe a sigh of relief once you pull into the parking lot, we made it!!!

I am sure Noah wishes he could go to soccer camp everyday of the summer, but I sure am happy I can have a leisurely morning tomorrow!!
