Too late to bed, too early to rise ...

It's occurred to me that once "real school" starts -- and not just this Pre-K thing -- that I may have to reset the alarm to about 4:30 a.m. to get all the girls in the house ready and out the door.

Grace and Maggie suddenly have their own style, want their own flair. Well, maybe not their OWN style and flair. Madison's style and flair. Madison is a girl in their Pre-K class. If Madison wears a ponytail in her hair one day, I know I"ll have TWO ponytails to do the next morning. If Madison wears a dress with tights one day -- guess what my two girls are wearing the very next day? And just this morning I discovered that Madison both wore a necklace yesterday and had a ribbon in her hair. Guess who was running around the house franticly looking for "the right necklace" at ten minutes past the time she should have left for work?

Chris, growing more accustomed every day to what it means to a girl to feel all special and girl-like by having just the right accessories, found the necklace. The day was saved! The morning was brighter! And I was still late for work.
