Overwhelmed

In the midst of another crazy morning...get ready, get dressed, coax the little sleepy children out of bed, breakfast, backpacks, hats and mittens, all to be out the door by 7:10am. Really, don't you think that is too early? Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with what has to be done each day. As I get back into the car from one of my many trips back into the house to get what I forgot, lunch, computer, phone, etc, there sit my little lovelies buckled into their car seats. Mom, Noah says, do you want to hear my new song?

and he sings to the tune of yankee doodle dandy

peanut sits on the railroad track, his heart is all aflutter
the 5:15 comes rushing by, toot, toot, peanut butter

He has a field trip to the train yard today.

Then the kids sing together the rest of the way to school, and I think it's about the sweetest thing I have ever heard, perhaps I was focusing on the wrong thing earlier this morning.
