Back to School: Two Mornings, Two Boys

Final scores

One family, two boys, two mornings, twelve ways for it to go sideways. Blake wakes before the sun. Carson could sleep through a tornado. School starts at 7:30 and 8:10, twenty minutes apart. Call the pictures, the fridge lunch, the 6:57 bus, and the donuts. Dad's word is final — he's doing pickup. One of us gets this right. The rest of us are just parents.
