Playing Mother

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting So my Mom was only supposed to stay one night in the hospital. Then the next day they decided to keep her for the night again. And now today she was supposed to come home but has to stay again. So basically I'm running everything at home, because Dad doesn't even get home until around 7.

Today wasn't so bad, because Brenda was at the house all day and so she made dinner for the kids. I had 4th block free and I wanted to go use some of my gift cards so I went to Dubuque, then came home and took Tessa and Austin to their soccer game at 6:30. Dad got home around 8 tonight.

Clair's birthday is tomorrow. She's having 7 of her friends over... 7 little girls running around the house. Well, actually, that's nothing I can't handle. Camp helps with those kinds of things. The problem will be that at home, my sister has no respect for me so I will have to work extra hard to keep things in line. She was fine as a camper though! Go figure.

Well I'm sure it will be fine. They're 7th graders so I think they should be able to occupy themselves pretty well. I don't have to arrange archery times or take them to the pool. :)

And maybe my mom will get to come home sometime within the next year!

yup - it's definitely a good thing you worked as a counselor this summer to prepare you for motherhood.
