One of my long time DCPs popped in (1 hour early) to pick up her son with a friend with her, that friend is looking for childcare for next year. Wouldn't you guess at that moment my playroom was topsy turvey (I really love my hubby for covering for me during my doctor's appointment, but he just has no concept of getting them to tidy as they go, or wiping their faces or hands for that matter!). As well, both babies are screaming their heads off (one is sick, Mom was on the way after my call to her, the other freaking out simply because I was holding the other sick little guy). Everyone else was singing and dancing at top volume....very happy...but wow the impression she must have gotten!! Let's hope other mom explains that on EVERY other day it is not ever chaos like that.

LOL... and you still maintained your sanity? Sounds like a day in the life to me.

After dealing with all of that I'm sure they're just impressed that they didn't find you curled up in the fetal position pulling your hair out.

Ha ha....this is my house everyday!! Minus the crying, all the toys are everywhere and everyone is dancing and shouting! Assuming this parent has a toddler they should know already that this is what they do!

This image had me laughing out loud. Thank you so much for the much needed laughter!

it probably looked like kids were having a blast. I wouldnt worry about it at all, she probably thinks you are super woman because you were calm and collected and not flustered by it all.
