Too much of a good thing

Can a person be too much of a good thing? I was just on my way out to pick up my kids when I got a call from my other family. This week has been a bit of a mess for my regular schedule of splitting time between my boys and my friends kids who see me twice a week pretty much every week. Well it seems yesterday when I didn't make it to pick up Ali from daycare, he threw a fit whem mom arrived. Poor mom was embarrassed.

I usually pick him and his sister up on tuesday and thursdays. (we switched the old schedule around with my boys) When she got there he said pretty loudly that he did not want her there, that "I" was supposed to pick him up and he wanted "Me" there. I'm going to be out of town next week so I hope he'll understand when I tell him so mom does'nt get embarrassed again.

Amazing how attached kids can get and how used to a certain schedule they can be isn't it.
