The night before vacation

Day spent cleaning
Children made messes
Packing Done
Haircuts done
Dog food bought
Ziva to Shannon
Keys to neighbors
Children in bed
Children out of bed
2am alarm set
Preflight irritability and anxiety
Car loaded
Trash out
Children back in bed
Dog out
Dog in
Prayers said

....check, check, check, check, check
Ready to go!

10pm, four hours until we leave and I am finally turning off lights (which is admittedly early for a summer night but not our goal of 9pm) when what do I see? A small boy building an electric circuit. (Read: making a mess and not sleeping) No wonder the getting ready is so irritating.
