Snotty mornings w/Leah

Some mornings go off without a hitch. We wake up, Leah gets ready for school without any issues. Clothes are put on, teeth are brushed, hair is done, breakfast is eaten and off she goes. Then other mornings are pure hell.

This particular morning was going well until Leah decided she needed to have yellow elastics for her pigtails not pink, not purple, not black...YELLOW. Unfortunately I had no clue where her yellow ones were.

We have always had two morning rules.

1) We do not fight about clothes.
2) We do not fight about breakfast.

We have added a third:

3) We do not fight about hair.

I finally located two yellow ones in my collection of hair bands.

This her post crying session, still needed to get her nose cleaned up but she wanted some pictures snapped of her outfit. She absolutely loves this outfit. She bought it all by herself at H&M.







Some pics of Leah waiting for her bus & walking towards it. Every time I watch her go to her bus I am shocked at how sad & proud I feel, all at the same time. I love that she is growing up and independent but still I just want it all to slow down a bit. Goes by much too quickly.
