Finally everyone is dressed and ready to go.  Mommy, find the keys and you can leave.  Of course the garage door opener only works partially.  I can open the garage remotely, but I can NOT close the garage door remotely.  I back out, turn the car off, disappear into the garage and emerge out of the front door.  This has cost me more time.  Now I am in a rat race and I speed out of the driveway and onto the main street.  “Say your morning prayer” I state to the little ladies riding in my vehicle.  Just as we approach the halfway mark from our home to the first destination, low and behold I notice someone inadvertently left their coat in the house.  Wow….?????!!!!!! Is all I can think of.  Who’s to blame?  Do I blame the child for not grabbing the coat when I yelled get your things and wait in the car? Or, do I blame myself for not being an efficient mother and checking before I sped out of the garage?  At this point, if we turn around the girls will be late for school, if we continue, everyone will know how bad of a job I’ve done up to this point.  We pull up and get out.  Everyone has on a coat except one.  All I can think of now is a nice hot cup of white chocolate mocha.
