Vick's

Dave had an early morning meeting at work this week. He had to be there by 7am and daycare doesn't open until 6:30. So I told him I would take the kids to daycare. I thought I had everything under control and all was going well. I even felt like I had extra time. Boy was I wrong!

Mitchell had gotten himself ready. Macey was fed and dressed. Miller was in the exersaucer. I was putting on makeup and finishing up my hair. I got dressed and headed out to tell everyone "Let's go".  It was 7:05am and that was when I wanted to leave. (We can't drop Mitchell off at school until 7:10.)

I walked into the kitchen and found Macey sitting on the kitchen counter. She had the container of children's Vick's vapor rub open and she had smeared it all over her arms. In the process of getting it all over herself, she had also gotten it in her hair. Luckily I was able to get it off of her arms with just some soap and water. But I didn't have time to deal with her hair! What a mess.  I got her cleaned up, changed her clothes and finally got out the door.

When I dropped her off, I warned her teachers that she was going to smell like Vick's for the rest of the day!
