Getting my four out the door today looked something like this:

7:00 Woke up- overslept.
7:15 Wake up Christopher, get him dressed for class pics- hope he didn't miss it!
7:45 Took him to school while the others stirred (Whew! He made it before class pic)
8:00 Checked him in school, went home to get everyone else dressed.
8:30 Made toast for breakfast, packed snacks and lunches and backpacks.
9:00 In the meantime, looking for everyone's socks and shoes. Thankful laundry was done.
9:15 Load up the car. Had to trace our hands for a parent project for school.
9:20 Kids off to school with Troy. BREATHE!
9:40 Troy calls- "Lauren can't go to school til lunch time- they are taking the OLSAT test
and they said she has to sit in the office, so I figured it was best to bring her home."
Lauren gets home, I get a shower. Get Dressed. Stare at the house wondering when I will get time to straighten?
11:00 Time to pack up- "Mom? Can we pick up Chick-fila? Dad said we could go" "Sure"
Loading up the car- "Oh, Christopher forgot his cello for after school! Oh, Room mom sent
an email- Jon Michael needs a shoe-box for Valentine's party! Oh! Lauren? Where is your
Picture order form? Money is due? IDK mom? OK, Let's just load up!"
11:10- Get in car, pick up Chickfila- inside of course because the line wraps around twice at this time.
11:30- great moment with Lauren in the car- just the girls. Lauren eats lunch on the road
since she is missing lunch time at school and has to carry her "Laura Ingalls" poster project to the room.
12:00- check Lauren in- drop off cello and lunch to Christopher, Shoebox to Jmac, and send Lauren down the hall with her project in tow. Give kisses, wave goodbye.
12:30- Home Alone. Look at the clock- I have to leave in one hour to pick everyone back up?

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
