On The Road. Again. - Plus Book Giveaway, Patriots Tix Winner!

All This Week's Warren, Watchung, Green Brook & Long Hill Kid Activities

By Roseann Sicola, Macaroni Kid Warren July 24, 2014
Ok, I admit it.  I over-scheduled my boys this month.  Back in February when they were home every other day for a snow day, I happily sent in deposits, dreaming of July when they would have something to do everyday someplace other than in my house, with me.  What I didn't factor in was that making sure they were completely occupied would also require me to be completely occupied with driving all over creation, especially this week.  This week, two of my boys are separated by 6 exits on 78, and with my husband out of town we are all spending a lot of time in the car.  Yesterday my 2 year-old rebelled, screaming to get out of the car and all I could think was, "sorry kid, it's only Tuesday."  Thank goodness I have friends who are helping out with some of the driving and kid-watching because while I can do a lot, I haven't quite figured out how to be in two places at one time!  The kids are loving camp, though, and I'm loving hearing about all they are doing.  And I have plenty of time to hear all of their stories while we're driving together in the car. Again.
