Don't mess with me today!

I was ahead of schedule. Got up at 6:15 and took a shower, put my make-up on...hair even though I know is dirty looks good for one more day in a pony tail, and went to wake up the boys - now it's 6:40ish. Nate left for a dentist apt. at 7:00am so I'm in charge of delivery of both boys to school - I'm ready!
7:00 both boys are dressed and eating a good breakfast - sausage and biscuit with strawberries and milk (I'm getting prouder of myself by the minute). Ian says he has to 'poop' which usually throws life off by about 20 mts. but this time he feels the urgency of the morning and does his thing quickly - no doddeling (if you knew him you would know that that was a miracle in itself). No one got food on their clothes - shoes are on - I packed Eli's lunch box - got backpacks ready -
7:10 (did you see that time??? Oh yes!!) We are walking out the door...
Eli gets in the van - "Mom, where's Ian's car seat?" Me - "WHAT!!!!" Eli - "It's in Daddy's car, remember?" Me - "Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!" Neighbors are waking up at this point and looking out their windows.
7:13 I call my friend and get her husband..."Jeff, are you taking Braden to school today?" (my nondirect way of saying - will you take Eli please?) But no....his mother is for some reason????
So, I tell him my situation (situation - I have to get Eli to his school by 7:20ish - not going to happen now - in order to drive across town to get Ian to his school by 7:55 - not wanting to take a risk without one child in a booster seat - darn those state laws to keep us safe!)
Back to Jeff...he tells me he has an extra booster seat - so we high tale it (I did watch for crazy mom van drivers on the road since Eli was not in a booster seat) - make it to friend's house - grab the booster - screech out of his driveway and head back to main road for Eli's school...
7:25 at this point - thinking maybe I can have everyone to school on time but not sure; I take deep breaths - Eli (my anxious one) worried he'll be late but I reassure him that no, he won't be late but right on time it's his brother who will probably be late...Ian hears this and not to my surprise seems fine with the fact! Oh I love them! hee hee
We drive through CRAZY MTSU STUDENT FIRST WEEK TRAFFIC - I'm giving dirty looks to thug looking teenagers who just rolled out of bed trying to take up the roads while my minivan driving self is on a mission - EXCUSE ME@@@@@@
7:39 - Eli gets out of van and walks into his school - probably 1st child to get to his room but didn't have to go to 'early duty' which he is very excited about.
Now the real race begins - I screech back onto CRAZY MTSU MAIN DRAG WITH CRAZY COOL DRESSED (PUT SOME MORE CLOTHES ON) SORORITY GIRLS...and get back onto the quiet hwy. 96 that takes me to Ian's school out in the country! I'm not speeding (Mom and Dad!) and peel (oh, did I say peel?) into Ian's school at 7:56 - maybe we can make it.
7:59 -"Ian please run!" I say in a calm but crazed voice as we enter the school.
I get stopped!!! 8:00 on the school wall - sign in late please!
8:02 I'm finally signing in and no I won't put a reason for my babies tardiness to school thank you unless you want me to write an essay! So I grab the glowing white note so all can see what a 'lazy mom' I am that I obviously didn't get my child up in time for his education of the day - and we start walking down the hall.
Now what???? 8:04 lady runs down the hall behind me saying "mammmm.." me- "yes?"
Her - "You can't walk your child to class anymore - Mr. Duke said yesterday was the last day to do that!" Me - shocked and about to either punch her (not really) or burst into tears - says "Oh, ok..." (as I look at all the parents walking past me to their kids rooms - what's the secret I wonder?) I look at my little baby who might I mention doesn't turn 5 years old until this coming Sunday, with his giant book bag weighing down his back - and I say "Ian, baby, you have to walk to your room, ok?" He looks at me and smiles and says "ok!" (HE'S SO BRAVE!) So, he starts the lonely trek to his room - looking back over his shoulder about 5 times to make sure I'm still watching - and waves bye to me as he enters his room (about 50 feet away).....
8:06 - I'm biting my lip and blinking profusely! I make it out of the school and burst into tears.
Might I add - this is the first time I have cried since he started school so it was over due people!
And I don't even want to but I will (b/c I can laugh at myself thank you) - I'm going to help his class water paint and then eat lunch with him in 30mts (9:30) so I know I'm absolutely ridiculous - no need to write it to me, thanks!
