I. Was. Wrong.

It's been over a year. I can't believe it. I haven't even looked at my blog in over a year let alone write on it. I always think that I am going to do better. I think I will get it all out.

But back to today.......today two of my children did not have school.....AND I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW! Well actually I found out last night around 8 pm but that is besides the point. I keep wondering how this happened. How did I not know the kids were out of school today? When I very first started working, the mother that sat next to me would always complain that the schools made it impossible for working mothers. I ASSURED her that was not the case. I had been a stay at home mom for 4 years, I had been the PTA president, I had put in countless hours at the school, so I assured her that I KNEW that they did everything possible to let working moms know the happenings of the school. I still stand by that even though I didn't know my kids were out of school today. I told her how we sent home letters, we posted on facebook, we set up virtual calendars, and so forth and so on. I refused the idea that there were people being left in the dark. I was wrong. There are people in the dark. To all the working moms that I offended over the years, I apologize. I work really hard to keep up with my kids and my husband and the house and the dog and my homeschooling efforts and my daughters chronic illness and and and.......
