When your Car Becomes a Closet

Parents, we've all been there. You roll up to daycare, late, tired, mismatched clothes, hair a mess, but you are ready to drop off your little one and start to tackle the day - only to read a reminder email that today is Picture Day.
Cue the panic.
With no time to run home, you do what any resourceful parent would: dive into the depths of your messy car, praying for a miracle. Somewhere beneath the piles of shoes, the forgotten toys, and the extra sock you swore you lost weeks ago, you find it - a slightly wrinkled (and only mildly smelly) acceptable outfit.
Is it the perfect, Pinterest-worthy picture day look? No. But will it capture the essence of real, messy, and wonderful childhood? Absolutely.
To all the parents who have lived this chaotic moment - solidarity. And maybe, I'll do better next time?
