The wheels on the bus go round and round (and round and round)

This post is part of a new challenge I have started over at Blog Share Connect – please join us. Its going to be fun.

I moan often about the driving around of my many kids in the afternoon. It is tiring and no really a whole lot of fun especially now that its warmer. It’s not all bad though, far from it. There really are a lot of reasons why it is great to be able to play moms taxi in the afternoon.

• Jack is always so super happy to see me. Every single day. Last week I was a little bit late to fetch him, the look on his face when I arrived was priceless.
• I get to stalk watch Cameron interact with his friends before he sees me.
• I get to find out stuff that needs to be done before they forget. Cameron tells me everything I need to know for the next few days every afternoon when he gets in the car.
• I get to watch their sports games.
• I can help out moms who are working by fetching and carrying if and when they need it.
• I get one-on-one time with the kids. Often I will have one kid in the car en-route to fetch one, or after dropping one off so its a nice way to catch up with them.

It is not always fun but there is lots to be happy about that I get to do it.
