I’m really hoping that Santa will grant my wish this year for the holidays. I am in desperate need of a multi-stage rocket, one that I can preferably strap to my back. This rocket could prove to be useful during my mid-aged marathon chasing the wranglers.

Here’s the equation:

Middle aged Mom + two tweens =  Chaos and exhaustion!

“Now, why did I become a mid-life Mom?”

Multistage rocket

A multistage (or multi-stage) rocket is, like any rocket, propelled by the recoil pressure of the burning gases it emits as it burns fuel.

Now don’t you think that sounds logical for Mommies In Orbit to ask for something like this for Christmas? We didn’t move at supersonic speeds like kids do today. The wildest activity that we engaged in, would have been riding “freehand” down the middle of the street. No helmets, nothing!

The tween orbit is a very busy place to reside. It’s also a noisy place too, where tween girls never seem to stop talking and making plans. Girls can plan out an entire holiday break on a 15 minute bus ride. Boys, on the other hand, drop by at a moment’s notice, no plans needed.

It’s almost impossible to keep up with all of this space activity without a booster of some sort. I’ve been warned about the teen years. Not only will I be busy tracking my kids’ whereabouts on Google Earth, but I’ll be forced to keep up with jetting them around to their numerous social events.

I’ve already planned on trading in the hunkin’ minivan when they start driving, I actually found the perfect family vehicle. It’s powered by vodka, limited to four passengers, and easy on the eyes.

“Much easier to park at Target!”
