will fill out a form the same day that she looks at it. Forms need time to mature, like a fine wine. Or, in reality, we’re so terrified of anything that requires us to submit official-looking documents to an official body that we can’t bring ourselves to overcome our terror and so stuff the form somewhere with the good intentions of filling it out at a later date. Forms sure need time to mature. ButThen comes the dreaded day. We can’t put it off any longer. Junior is running for the bus .
We will misspell our own child’s name. This always happens. Then we have to scribble it out and look like a ditzy idiot. We will give them their sibling’s birthdate and have to scribble that out, too. As we write the correct one down, we will have to say it aloud: “Twelve-Twenty-Oh-Seven.” Then there’s the other piddling information: measurements of how tall they are and how much they weigh, emergency contact, emergency contact number , and your work number.

If she wants to skip a lot of blood, sweat, and misery, she should just pay someone else to do them for her.
