That’s how I describe trying to get out the house with the kids!
Takes 15 minutes to get everyone in the correct coat, then I take a deep breath, recompose myself and try to say in a lovely Mary Poppins voice, “Get your shoes on. Stop that now please and get your shoes on. No, I said get your shoes on! …Those are not your shoes they are mine, go get YOUR shoes on. Will you stop fighting! Now, stop!! No, not you, you stay here, you’ve got yours on already. No, go put your shoes on not your wellies. Shoes on great, well done.” I say in a relief. “Lets go. Hang on, why has no one got their coat on? We spent 15 minutes before I told you to put your shoes on getting your coats ON. In Batman voice, PUT YOU COATS BACK ON….No, No that doesn’t mean take your shoes off!!!…..and so on…just like whack a mole.
Should see meal times. Whack a mole for the elite!
