Day 5/365 - What. A. Day.

Today had EJ with me all day, singing and dancing while I taught over his head. He was bored, antsy, and around a bunch of new people - so higher maintenance than normal.

After classes, we went the grocery store to stock up for tomorrow's storm. More stress for Mama. 

By the time we got home, I was done. 

D. O. N. E. 

A margarita and wings were in order - which EJ slept through. 

We managed to get the guy at the podium to snap a photo of us before we left - bleary eyed and all of us ready for today to be over. 

Because sometimes - heck, a LOT of the time - this is our life. 

Tired. 

Cranky. 

Messy. 

With a paperboard wing-hat. 

And those times are worth remembering - and seeing the beauty within - as well as those more polished times (or those with a camel).
