Prioritize

When you are a mom you learn to prioritize.  It is a skill that you thought you mastered already B.K. (Before Kids) but you are slapped in the face with the reality that you used to waste so much time before watching the Bachelor and plucking your eyebrows. Once little baby comes drooling along your experienced, structured, efficient self needs a boot camp.  I have a fairly scheduled day set up for Lil C and myself to ensure things get done and we both have time to eat.  But lately, Cooper has been thwarting the system.  His hour long morning naps are turning into 20 minutes.  I used to have an hour to shower and get ready for the day, now its 20 minutes.  That is when I realized I must learn to prioritize better.  Even better than before.  I must choose. Hair or legs.  Yeah, I said it out loud.  Thats what this place is for.  So in the mornings I have about an hour of play time before nap to ponder which item is most important and why.  Secrets out.  If my hair is shiny and clean then you know why I'm wearing pants!  The price of motherhood.
