Eat, Read, and Be Mommy

Since my girls’ dance recital is looming, I finally sat down tonight to read some of the emails about the next few weeks.

Ugh.

I knew their dance pictures were being taken on a Saturday; I NOW know that each dance class reports at a specific time, and one of my daughters’ times is 7:30 am.

ON A SATURDAY.

I now ALSO know that this dance studio, just like our previous studio, does a long dress rehearsal the night before the recital, which means that we get to juggle littles with sitting in an auditorium for hours AGAIN.  I can’t really fault the reasoning behind it, and if my youngest kids were the dancers involved, it wouldn’t be a huge deal, but AAAHHHHH.  Shoot me now.

I’m not cut out to be a dance parent, folks.  Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go shed some inner tears about what time I have to get up this Saturday morning.
