I get the fingerprinting, the password through me. Must be a lot of divorced families, or angry grandparents???

Would you cut yourself some slack woman.

If it's anything like my surgery, I have to be there @ 5:15am. UGH!

I get the fingerprinting, but a password?

You would be blown away by the way our school announces the teachers each kid has.

I need to stop reading these Kindergarten posts. I'm about to start crying and school hasn't even started yet!

I cried as I walked away from the school and mine (blush) are in the 3rd and 4th grade. I wouldn't want to do the kindergarten drop off again unless it would bring back more time with them.

I always forget where I've kept my passwords. It's always somewhere that should be obvious. But then again, I think I have early Alzehimer's.

I totally forgot about all of the other post-its once I got to the last one. It's so true. I just tweeted something like that in the #PPDChat I participated in yesterday. Just cut yourself some slack, because you know what? You (WE!) deserve it. {Hugs}

OMG, I totally love the part about reading setting an example for the kids, not that you're ignoring them!! It's the truth, isn't it?? I'm just being a good role model when I can barely tear myself away from a good book to play another game of Candyland, right?

Can you believe Tim had the nerve to be gone on a business trip on Garrett and Landon's first day of preschool? I was so angry...it was pure chaos trying to get all the kids ready by myself and then get them all dropped off at their schools on time...praying that no one cried or had a hard time, including myself. Thankfully it went well but still...

Yes as the others said, seriously a password to pick up your own kid? That is insane. When Alex wakes up she likes to say "wake up it's morning". And open all of the blinds to prove she is right
