That’s it

6.12.10

First day of school 2009
Last day of School 2010
That’s it. No one is allowed to get any bigger. The next person to grow an inch is going in time out. I’m simply putting my foot down. These four are not allowed to gain a pound, grow a shoe size, or learn a new vocabulary word. No one is allowed to tell me Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is for babies. They must still request for me to hold them even if I tell them my back hurts. They must climb into our bed each morning, and if they don’t, they are going to get it. I mean it. 
If only it were that easy.
At least I still get this when she comes home and sees me Lydia. 
Can’t believe I am now mother to a 3rd grader, 1st grader, and a PreK-er. At least, Lydia’s still home with me for a while. (sigh)

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
