"Mom, Can we go now?"
I have heard, over the last few hours - "Mom, can we go now?" "Mom, when are you done?" "Mom, can I have a playdate?"
I am at work. Seeing clients. My almost four year old is in preschool. The nine year old refuses day camp, insisting on playdates. Well, most moms work, and she's already exhausted her 2 stay-at-home mom/friend playdates. Now it's my turn to reciprocate - and so she must wait until a non-working day for it to happen at our house! Harry Potter interested her for 35 pages, the ipod and the "annoying orange" on youtube has kept her entertained for the last few hours (really, they are kind of amusing), but she is ansy. Ah well - I am here for another 4 hours (time to call dad and see if he will take her...)
