Me, a week ago: so where’s prom, do you know? And the after-prom?
Froglet: I’ll find out.
Me, two days ago: so do you know where prom is now?
Froglet: yeah, it’s at Fancy-Place-Next-Door.
Me: wow, that’s super close! You could walk there - well, not in those heels, obviously, but still. And the after-prom?
Froglet *fidgets*: didn’t dad tell you?
Me: tell me what?
Froglet: It’s here. We’re hosting it.
Me *falls over*
I think I’m fairly ready. I have finger food of various kinds, mineral water (LOTS of water) and pop; we’re not legally allowed to serve them booze, but apparently if they bring their own booze we’re good, so the kids have dropped off their booze (a lot of booze). They’re gone now, and I am on standby to pick them up and drive them to our place after the official prom is over (which is literally 5 minutes away by car).
Me, to Froglet: Ok, so we have food…
Froglet: don’t leave it on the table though, I need it for the beer pong…
Me: the what?
Froglet: it’s a, a thing.
Me: Froglet, I really want your friends to have a memorable after-prom but I’d rather “memorable” didn’t mean being chased around by a crazy frog-lady with a broom.
Froglet *throws arms around me* You’re the best mommy. The best.
We mommies live for those moments. <3
WISH ME LUCK!
