Sleep deprivation

Lots of late nights coupled with early morning seminary and/or sports have equaled a VERY tired Momma.  I am losing my mind.  For example; This morning Elizabeth was taking too long in the bath.  I knew Katherine would be late for school if her sister didn't get out and moving soon.  I needed to get out the door if I was going to get either girl to school on time so I have this conversation with my eldest daughter:

Me:  'Will you please watch Elizabeth in the tub for a few minutes while I run Katherine to school.  I'll get her out when I get back,'

Katherine:  'Mom!  I AM Katherine!  And don't you have to take HER to school right now too?  Who are you driving?'

Me:  'Crap!  You're right!'

I managed to whisk her out of the tub and into some clothes in record time.  Katherine was on time to school but Elizabeth and the friend we were driving were a bit on the late side of things.  I'm going to enjoy a quiet house and take an obviously needed nap.
