Feelings

Thirteen loads of laundry ooze out of Caleb's pack-n-play.

Faster than Eli's flying grape juice, I'll rescue my ESV study Bible, train the toddler's temper, and orchestrate dinner extraordinaire.

Caleb's cough escalates. Vick's Vapor Rub on a washcloth down his onsie and he'll be cured by morning. No hurdle can stall supermom.

"I'll do that later", pledges Prince Procrastinator as I banish boxes of books to the garage. Turn the soup to simmer. Breathe.

Crash!

The laundry room shelving lands on the floor. My foot finds the sharp point of a spilled tack.

I fall on my face.

"Honey, call for pizza."
