I take the only option available to me... I drive. It's normally a 30-minute nice drive, but with a stop-off for daycare and all, from start to finish can be upwards of an hour. But it's nice. In the morning, the babies and I can sing and be silly on the way to daycare, from there I listen to my morning radio guys (the 2 sexiest fat-men on the radio, Rick and Bubba) and depending on my mood, can stop off for a coffee or muffin or something on the way to work, or even stop by the bank for some much-needed money (as I did this morning). Then on the way home, I have options to stop and do my grocery shopping on the way to pick up the kids (pass 2 good grocery stores on the way to pick them up) or stop off and have a relaxing drink, or after I pick up the kids we can go to supper, run errands, etc. before heading home. And while we're running errands and heading home, the kids and I talk about their day and just act silly, playing games and singing songs in the van. (Ok, so one is only 10 months and not much on converstation, but it's fun!
)
I tried to share-ride with my husband for a while, but that didn't work out at all. With our rental's, and his side-business of looking for these and caring for them and all, he'd often be at one end of town or another at the end of the day, or he'd need to go by one of them before work, or whatever, and we ran into problems with daycare hours. Plus, I missed my quiet time without him or the kids and the ability to run errands if needed. So that stopped, thankfully.
