Is it Friday yet?

Yesterday, the first words out of my mouth were...what day is it? This morning it was...is it Friday yet? What could drive me to hope day in and day out for the weekend? Now I know a lot of folks hanker for the weekend because they need a break from the daily grind.

But my desire for Friday is a bit of laziness and selfishness. Laziness, because my daughter's best friend is tracked out (they are in year round school), so right now I have to drive both ways in the carpool. 

Now, I know I could put her on the bus, but there are 5th graders on that bus and I don't want my sweet kindergartner to come home with any 5th grader rubbed off on her! (I have slowly weaned her off of High School Musical, because even as a "sweet" Disney movie, I don't need to live with a Sharpay OR Gabriella mimic). 

Back to Friday though, I am selfishly in need of Friday. Friday means that if I want to cuddle up on the couch with my little sweatpea and watch Mary Poppins, I don't have to worry about getting a grumpy kindergartener up and out the door the next day - she can just sleep in. 

Something both of us love! Now if only her darling little brother would get the "sleep in" memo.
