I Need to be a Mother of Five More Often
I am in California right now staying at my sister Danielle's house watching her 4 kids with Berkeley tagging along for about a week. It has actually been really fun and not hard at all. She has a 2 year old, so him and Berkeley are having so much fun together and the other kids are just fun for her to watch. Today was quite an eventful day. In the morning I took 2 of the kids to the park for about an hour and met up with a friend. This was Berkeley's first time at the park and she was SO funny. She would get to the top of the slides, then get on her belly and slide down all by herself. No one ever showed her what to do or anything. The first time she did it I could not stop laughing. Then the older kids got home from school at 3 and at 3:30 me and the 3 oldest kids left for Disneyland and left the 2 youngins at home with the babysitter. We went for about 4 hours and it was so fun. They have annual passes and I used my sisters (no I didnt lie....) so it was somewhat a free trip besides the outrageous prices of parking, dinner, churros, and a rice krispie treat. It was cute to see everything decorated for Halloween. So in a nut shell, being a mother of 5 is not so bad. I am pretty proud of myself for hanging in so well. Now I just cant wait until I am a REAL mother of five.... ok, maybe I can.
