I paid the fee, changed the reservations, and thanked her for doing her best on our behalf.Ībout that time, I realized the car was out of gas. And I’m certainly not going to pay for a hotel room that doesn’t get used–no matter how stinky it is. I’m not going to waste bread just because I left it in the toaster too long. When I burn my toast, I don’t throw it away. Now there is something you have to know about me. The alternative was to walk away and lose the money they had already charged my credit card. The next woman with whom I spoke was kind and sincerely wanted to help me, but English was not her native tongue and she had no real power to solve my problem.Īfter waiting on hold for some time, she was able to offer me a suhweet deal: I could pay a fine and change the reservation date so we would have a place to stay that night, but we would have to take a SMOKING ROOM. By now I was on the road and having my 10-year old look up and dial numbers so that I could sort things out. They said I would have to take it up directly with Expedia. I called the hotel and told them my situation. “Absolutely no changes or cancellations!” And to top it all off, in bold at the end of the email were the words: ![]() I opened it and discovered that I had somehow booked a room not that night but three weeks hence, not at Super 8 but at a less glamorous establishment (if you can imagine that). I’m all about the best rates, so I quickly searched for the hotel and booked it on Expedia.Īs I was climbing into my car, I got a confirmation email. During our conversation, the hotel representative told me that the best rates were available from booking online. It turned out that she was on vacation with her family. I hoped we would be able to bum lodging off my sweet cousin, but I didn’t actually speak to her until just as we were leaving the house. Mike and the teenagers would race up in the morning after the paper route.įollowing a nightmarish packing flurry, my younger four loaded into the car. We decided that the best scenario for transporting our family to Boise included me going up that day with the younger children and staying over night. It wasn’t until the day before we were expected at the governor’s office that Mike and I talked about the actual trip. Lately we’ve also been helping our 13-year old son finish up his Eagle Scout project and our 16-year old daughter prepare for the Distinguished Young Women program. Our weekly schedule includes chauffeuring kids to and from nearly twenty activities. As you can imagine, I was flattered and a little bit nervous. It all started when I received the congratulations call. I’m talking about the trip itself–a trip that will go down in history, or at least in family folklore. In the spirit of fun and full disclosure, I want to share my bumpy road to Mother of the Year. Moms, like all humans, are equal parts amazing and hot mess! We all have struggles. We all need friendship and support. But I’ve been around long enough to know that we all have vulnerabilities. And I know I’ve had feelings of self-doubt wash over me at times. I know I have been guilty of such thoughts. Sometimes as moms we look around and think other moms have it all together. However, I want to make one thing clear… The honor didn’t come as a result of flawless parenting. ![]() It was an honor and an experience that I will cherish always.
