thank you little einsteins

it's been a long week, finishing with a long day. both kids have bronchitis (never sure how to spell that) and after dropping the daddy off at a shift he was able to pick up at work today. taking both kids to the pedi for a diagnosis and prescription. arguing with the pharmacist that my daughter does in FACT have insurance. taking lunch money to the daddy at work and venting about the pharmacist. coming home and changing the THIRD poopy diaper of the day for BOTH children (remember we now cloth diaper). doing five loads of laundry plus a load of diapers and inserts. a load of dishes. landing on the floor sometime around 4:30pm and being crawled on until 4:45pm when the daddy arrived home and rescued me. making dinner. and finally putting the kids to bed. it's been a long day. what kept me going, besides the love of my children and sheer will, was the thought of the fabulous bubble bath i planned on diving into later in the night and maybe never returning from.

as i began running my bath i realized i had nothing for it. no bubbles. no salts. nothing. but i am a mom, i shall not be deterred. i realized my kids have bubble bath. "rocket berry" bubble bath. i've had a long week, but it's friday and i smell like rocket berries.

happy weekend!
