I just have to ask those working moms....How do you do it?????
I am a Step-mom to two boys ages 6 and 9. I have a three year old that has been in minimal nursery school since he was one. He only goes three days a week for a couple of hours.
My step-sons BM (birth mother) just had a baby with her BF and this is her schedule:
She drops my step-sons at school to the morning-care program at 7:15AM (school starts at 8:45AM). She then drives her three month old baby to an in-home sitter that has five or six other kids at 7:45AM and then goes to work. She picks the baby up at 6:00PM and then she picks my SS up from after-care at 6:15PM (their school is over at 3:10PM). So my ss's are at school each day for 11 hours and the three month old baby is at a sitters for 10 hours each day!
Doesn't that seem like a lot! I just don't understand this. I offered to watch my SS's and she let me for two weeks and then got mad at my DH and put them back in the scholl child care program.
Why would you bother having children if someone else is going to raise them for you?

It's the folks in Tennesee who don't live and work there on a day to day, month to month basis that have the skewed and wrong perception of what the "real" people of those cities do in a snowstorm.
Oh Susannah don't you cry for me I haven't experienced that snow that deep. :)so I will take your word for it. Glad you like all that . There's another song I think that it's appropriate for this topic. It never snows in LA so Santa don't bring me a sleigh. I will the keys by the door there's no chimney anymore....... Remember where you are so you better bring your car cause there's no snow in La.
LOL. We have dustings and not much snow so I am greatful :) Good to know you all get that much and when people say ahh you all should move here or there I have my reasons now :)
We get sick when we are out in the cold. And I found the opposite to be true. Knock on wood. And by the way children in general are breeders of illness. Hahahahaha my aunt says that and I laugh.b
Oooooh you *can* wear them. BUT they will absolutely, without a doubt, not perform as well.
I am from the south so our weather is pretty mild and the last blizzard was maybe in the 70's.
We don't need boots, we are having a glorious Christmas no snow warm weather Yeah ha.
