Not Me! Monday

It's not me who completely LOST HER MIND this week. My own behavior would never lead me to believe I was pregnant...if I didn't know it definitely wasn't the case. Not me. I'm always organized, logical and completely balanced and focused.

It wasn't me who freaked out because I lost Nolan in our very own house this week. It wasn't me who frantically checked every room and even enlisted the help of Bob and Matthew. When we found him, the little cutie was not playing quite contentedly on the floor with a pile of books -- right where I had left him just minutes before.

Nolan was born last December, so it wasn't me who had never put him in the church nursery until yesterday. And I wasn't completely nervous to leave him there, despite the fact that he'd probably have a blast. After nine whole months of gathering courage, I didn't finally take the plunge simply because, now that he's mobile, there was no way I could work with the preschoolers with him in tow.

After all the internal drama about leaving him for the first time, someone most definitely did not have to hand deliver him to me after church because I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT HIM AND NEVER PICKED HIM UP. (Thanks, Kendra!)

It wasn't this still-adjusting-to-the-fact-that-my-firstborn's-in-preschool mommy who forgot Matthew's backpack and emergency backup clothes this morning. And it's not my son who has very high odds of needing his emergency backup clothes. I didn't search the car for miscellaneous spare pairs of short, pants and underwear and then shove them into a grocery bag and triumphantly declare it a backpack. It wasn't me who then patted myself on the back for recycling my plastic bags as school accessories.

And just to be clear: I am not pregnant. For real not.
