So, I feel like the worst mom ever! On Monday, Carter and Lauren had little performances in their music classes at school. Carter's was at 10:45 am and Lauren's was at 2:00 pm. Both kids called to remind me in the morning and I reassured them that I would be there. Well, I went to Carter's, came home, and finished my stuff I needed to get done. Then Dave asked if I could go with him to Home Depot. He needed my help getting some sheet rock into the van (it's now 1:00 pm). I said, "Sure, I just have to be back by 2:30pm." Totally forgot that no, I needed to be back before 2:00 for Lauren's music thing. I don't know where my brain is these days! I remembered at 2:25 that I was supposed to be at the school. I felt horrible. Lauren said she was a little sad and kept looking for me. A friend of mine that was there said Lauren came up to her after they were done singing and said, "My mom said she was going to come, but I don't think she did." That broke my heart when I heard that. When I was at Carter's performance I noticed that the kids whose parents weren't there were starting to get worried and were asking the teacher to call their mom's. I leaned over to a friend and said, "I feel so sorry for the kids whose parents can't make it." What an IDIOT I am! Hello! When she got home, she sang all of her songs for us but it's just not the same as actually being there. I still feel really bad about it today. Here's a little video of one of her songs (sung to us at home...I love the hula hoop part!):
Here's one of the songs Carter sang...his I made it to! Notice that Carter doesn't do any of the actions like the other kids. I guess he's too cool!
