A Day in the Life of.......

I was just thinking to myself yesterday that life was finally settling down since school started. We were finally getting into the rhythm of soccer practice, soccer games, school, preschool, homework, bus schedules, presidency meetings, etc. etc. etc. Well that is what I get for thinking. Thursdays I volunteer in Jared's class in the morning and Alex's class in the afternoon. I was just getting ready to leave when there came a call for help from the playground. That intuition that mothers get went off in my head and I knew it was Alex. Sure enough the student teacher comes back into the room and tells me that they just took Alex to the office. I get there to find my poor sweet boy hyperventilating and blood gushing from his mouth. Now I will admit it looked a lot worse than it turn out to be. But the short of it is that when the bell rang to go in from recess Alex tried to drop down from the Monkey Bars and landed teeth first into the bar below. OUCH!!! We calmed Alex down, gathered him up and dropped in on Doctor Keyes. Our very wonderful dentist. He took x-rays which Alex thought was the coolest thing. (For the last 2 years Alex has wanted to be a dentist). Luckily he still had his baby teeth on top because now we are expecting a visit from the tooth fairy any day. I have to say this day would have been impossible if it wasn't for my wonderful friends. One call and one friend picked Tyler up from preschool and another was able to pick up Jared from the bus. Well I guess it's just another Day In the LIFE of me.
