Oh No! What shall we do?
Summer is here, that makes us glad.
But being stuck in the house with five kids can be a little daunting.
I've got to try not to over-think this, but honestly summers always make me a little sad
because I really want to be fun mom, but dang it, I am not naturally
FUN MOM.
I am more Work-at-it-mom, Sometimes-gets-it-right-mom, but also
Very-likely-to-blow-it-and-turn-into-slightly-meanish-uptight-and-crabby-mom.
Well, no time to be squeamish, time to jump in with both flippers and my floaty.
Success will require:
homemade cookies
park days
encouragement
time off for good behavior (and maybe an occasional nap)
hugs (the giving and the getting)
swimming
river days
drive-in movies
tree houses
and
Valium.
or chocolate. either one.
or chocolate. either one.
