Yesterday I drove to upstate New York with a hyperactive 4-year-old, a disgruntled 8-month-old and a highly anxious wife. All was fine until we got past NYC and then it got all end-of-Apocalypse-Now with utter chaos, violence and anarchy in the car. Now we're here and playing in 15-foot-high mounds of snow and all is well until we have to drive back on Saturday. Oh yay.
