I’ve got an acute case of momnesia, aka mommy brain.
Example 1: Monday is library day for Connor. As a kindergartener, he is allowed to check out 1 book at a time. He can only check out a new book if he turns the old one in. We’ve had the same book for 3 weeks, and it’s totally my fault. I cannot for the life of me remember to put that book in his bag on Monday morning.
Example 2: Thursday is show and tell day for Logan. I should have show and tell down pat since Connor went to the same school. I’ve had 2 years of show and tell experience. Logan has been in school for 7 Thursdays and has only brought show and tell for 3 of them. Good one, mom.
We have a calendar on the fridge and it is very helpful 🙂
I have had the same library issue. So I make Blake leave his book in his backpack all the time. He only takes it out to read it. Of course, the danger in this is that sometimes, it doesn’t actually ever get read.:)
