I hope the clouds part for her soon. High school is such an adjustment in the best of situations and hers is complicated by her homeschooling background (lucky homeschooled girl that she is!).<br /><br />You're a great mom and she's lucky you're there to be her advocate.<br /><br />Lifting you and your kids up in prayer, Polly, and so are St. Thomas Aquinas (patron saint of students) and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton (patron saint of American education)!<br />-- Liz @ twenty-firstcenturyhousewife.blogspot.comLiz in Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01255930581089283782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424347085268921925.post-69499381599832914032009-10-22T17:35:14.561-04:002009-10-22T17:35:14.561-04:00I am exhausted just reading all that!

Push them in the shower. On upstairs, and one downstairs.<br /><br />Someone always forgets something, so I always check in with them.<br /><br />Make breakfast for everyone, and pack up lunches. Let the little dogs back into the house. Pull the car to my house, and honk the horn for the children to come out to the car. Drive them to school.<br /><br />Come home, check e-mail really fast. Let the Cane Corso's outside. (2, 130 lbs dogs) Give them each a treat for sitting, down, come. Make them sit and wait for their food.<br /><br />Make phone calls to contractors, real estate agent, and anyone that has to be contacted about property.<br /><br />Make the beds, and start whatever chore it is I need to do for the day. There is always something to clean.<br /><br />Just when I think I can sit down it is time to get the kids. One child in Choir, and horseback riding.Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17567523164145628088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424347085268921925.post-88363725972307085262009-10-22T11:43:59.352-04:002009-10-22T11:43:59.352-04:00my husband also gets up at 4am using the alarm on ...my husband also gets up at 4am using the alarm on his cell phone that plays the most obnoxious music.
