Reasons I used to be late:
- Got in the shower when it was time to leave
- Couldn't get my hair quite right
- Couldn't decide between the pink top and the sparkly one
- Had to change out of jeans because I couldn't breathe in them
- Which earrings? Which shoes?
- Decided the sparkly top was a bit much
Reasons I'm late now:
- Takes an hour to get the boys to agree to have breakfast and another two for them to eat it
- They must watch Toy Story 3 in its entirety before they can start the day
- One of them only likes blue socks, and we only have 2.5 pairs in the whole house
- Sometimes they don't like the way I take their coats down from the peg
- Have to change out of jeans because they're covered in snot
- Hide in toilet for a bit wondering whetheroo it's really worth ever leaving the house again
- Have to spend time explaining to my two-year-old son why it’s not safe for him to drive
