This Saturday, I could only take one kid to their swimming and mandarin lessons. The other kid was sick. And sick enough that I knew that I shouldn't take her and if I decided to, would receive threatening looks from other parents.
It's one thing to take your kid to lessons, but it's all the waiting in between. I do try to bring other things to do...maybe a book/magazine. But sometimes I do planning. While my one kid was in her class, I sat in the car where it was blissfully quiet. Planned out what I needed to buy for my one kid's birthday party, when I was going to get it, etc. But I got it all done and did I say it was quiet? Because it was awesomely quiet.
The world is a noisy place. Sometimes, quiet is what I really need to hear.
