Wow. You're all as flat out as I am, at least. Big hugs and solidarity, frazzled Mummys.
I am under no illusions that school will make things easier. 4 drop offs and 4 pick ups a weeks is currently hard enough. Add another round of kinder plus prep next year and we'll have 7 drop offs and 7 pick ups. Poor little baby boy... might just move his bed and high chair into the car and save him relocating every 10 minutes

Fortunately the primary school we're going to has no homework. But lots of extra curricular things and I'm going to have to find a way to limit that I think so we don't spend our lives tooing and froing.

You know what I wish? I wish my sister... the one with kids that I don't actually have... or my fictional, SAHM with preschoolers bestie, lived next door. We could kid-swap and drive and mind and support eachother so little ones didn't have to be dragged from their beds and there was company and coffee-making, even if it was in PJs and squalor. I need a village to do this job. And I am not entirely unsupported, but geez it'd be great to have that kind of readily available back up.
