Sounds like the boy is on the ball. Don't worry, it sounds like he's going to make sure you keep everything on task. Funny story. Sounds like the boy is on the ball.

My son had a few of those too. I have two alarm clocks and we only woke up on time one day out of the four. I think me and the hubby need to get to sleep earlier. It's hard with him working nights (and I stay up until he gets home). OR - put an alarm clock in my son's room. Hmm...that could be an idea. LOL – I love the part about the sheet wrinkles!

Today was MY son's first day of school (2nd grade). He needed to be at the bus stop at 7:30am. I programmed the alarm for 6:30am BUT APPARENTLY FORGOT TO SET IT TO COME ON. So at 7:14 this morning, I magically woke myself up and realized "OH CRAP!!!! We're LATE!". I was quite impressed with the way that my husband, myself, and my son were able to get out the door to the end of our driveway at 7:28, lunch made, backpack in hand. That said, I was wearing my jammies under my jacket, but who cares. We took pictures of me (looking very sleepy) and my son (who still had sheet wrinkles plastering his face and head). What a funny coincidence!! OMG – how funny! Today was MY son’s first day of school (2nd grade). He needed to be at the bus stop at 7:30am.

It is just so hard. He's my baby. He still is my baby, just 6 feet of him now. I still get emotional even now with new stuff. But he is a good son and I always get hugs and I love you mommy. Yes, at 16 he has decided it is ok to call me mommy again. I love it!!! My son still tells his friends how his mom sat outside his class crying the first day of school. It is just so hard.

This afternoon I picked up my youngest son from preschool and said, "I missed you today, buddy, did you miss mommy?" He says "nope" in this nonchalant sort of way. It was only his third day EVER of being in school - couldn't he at least have pretended to have missed me??? So, I'm with ya, girl!
