This particular tirade is sent to my beloved sister, Debra. Debra came over tonight and watched the children so that Chris and I could have an evening without children. I told her not to worry about any rules. To just have fun because we didn’t have anywhere to go tomorrow and we could recover tomorrow. So we come home to three children preparing to bed down in the living room. Cute! A slumber party in the living room . . . that now includes me sleeping on the couch because Aunt Debra was going to. How did I get mixed up with this? I am all for a slumber party, but how about one in my bedroom in a real bed?! Now my poor back (no not really) is going to sleep on a lumpy (only where I started the fire in the cushion) old (10 years. 5 moves. numerous diapered children.) couch. Ainsley informed me that she would be joining me sometime tonight. I told her there was no room. She proceeded to show me that she could fit. This is going to be an interesting night. I think that I have already earned a nap tomorrow afternoon.
But I can say one thing . . . I am sure that this will be one of those nights that we will all remember and cherish. It will be worth the aches in the morning!!! So thank you Aunt Debra!
You. Are. Welcome. :o)
I enjoyed hanging with your kids last night. I know they enjoyed having a slumber party in the living room. It is like being outside anyways because you have birds in your chimney that chirp ALOT.
I hope they had a fun time!
You noticed the birds! We have an entire family living in the chimney. But I don’t know what drives me more nuts. The birds or the cat trying to get to the birds.
You pointed them out to me. I heard them all night long though and more so when we were camping out in the living room. It was was just like we were outside only cooler and with TV.
