It's finally Friday, the day I was so looking forward to...
And then I had a rough morning with the kids. Jayden went to school wearing a shirt covered in toothpaste because she wasn't paying attention to what she was doing while she was brushing her teeth and, sadly, it was the only clean shirt she had. I was angry with her for making a mess...and I was angry with myself for being so behind on laundry.
When I got home from dropping them off, I went on the computer to check my e-mail and Facebook and discovered what had happened in Japan and was immediately overtaken with sadness.
All those poor people...I can't even begin to imagine the chaos. It's very scary.
I told the kids about the earthquake and tsunami when they got home. Jayden's first words were: "Did people die? Did kids die?"
And of course I told her the truth. I don't like to scare them, but you can't really sugar coat catastrophes.
Today turned into a weird, glued-to-CNN kind of a day.
Natural disasters are so not cool.
