What a Day!

What a day it has been already!! Lee had decided yesterday that he wanted to go to school and stay all day today and even take a nap with the rest of the kids. This is rare for Lee because he doesn't even take naps anymore. So, this morning when he woke up he was really excited. He gets dressed gets his bookbag and is ready to go. I go and load both kids up in the van buckle them in and everything else. I get in the driver's seat try to start the van and it doesn't start. It makes a squeeling sound instead. I tried several times and it still wouldn't work. Lee wasn't happy and of course I wasnt happy either. I had no clue what to do. It is pretty far away to walk to espcially when it is so hot outside. I went to my neihbors and they weren't home. Next I called a friend that lives down the road and she let me borrow her car and she stayed here with Easton while I took Lee to school. Thank goodness. Around noon I had just layed Easton down for a nap and the phone rings. It was the school. I figured they were calling because Lee wanted to come home and didn't want to take a nap with the rest of the kids. Nope!! They were calling because Lee had fallen backwards out of his chair and hit the back of his head on the bookshelf. They wanted me to come get him because they didn't want him to lay down with a head injury. Again, I didn't know what to do because the van still wasn't working and Easton was sleeping. Finally I saw that my next door neighbors were home and she offered to go get him for me. Bless her heart!! She made it a lot more easier on me and I didn't even have to wake Easton up from his nap. It isn't even 2:00 and all of this has happened already. Hopefully the rest of the day will be peaceful. Oh yeah, I got to go see My Sister's Keeper the ohter night. I read the book a couple of weeks ago and the book was absolutley amazing. I was really dissapointed in the movie. If you haven't read the book or haven't seen the movie don't read the rest of this. They changed the ending completely in the movie and they left out soooo much. I can understand now why people say that books are so much better than movies. I think I was the only dry eye in the theater because I was expecting something totally different to happen. I cried like a baby reading the book, but I think the movie could have been made a lot better.
