How a Day Dissolves

In an effort to be prepared, it was back in January that I scheduled this day off from work. My son's promotion ceremony was on the school district calendar for this day, but no details, at the time, of where, when, how long such a ceremony would be. You would think I could have accomplished a little housework while both children were at school. Of course, There's a monkey wrench in any day when the school schedule is off the norm.

I think I've learned quite a bit about myself, my family, and each individual member in just the few hours of semi-crisis that a "take the day off so you're not stressing" day off this has been.
