H2O

Last night all the kids decided to sleep i my bed. Again. It's been nice having shane away. Except that i have been staying up way too late. Really enjoying some solitude. Generally puttering around the house for hours every night. No television. Just the blissful sounds of silence.

When i put the kids to bed we were all saying good night to each other john-boy style. Each taking turns saying good night to everybody. Several times.

When parkers turn came he lined up his water bottles above his pillow.

"Good night water. Goodnight other water. Goodnight oldest water. Love me water."

I think my boobs have been replaced by a line up of water. And apparently he loves them more than all of us.

He's a doll, that Parker.

"love me water." bahahaha! that is so cute. again, i'm jealous of the bed-full of kids. hopefully they don't get too used to it, eh?

Hi Jess
The age your kids are is a nice point in the loooonnnggg haul of being a Mom- kids talking, but not teenagers yet, although all stages have their pros and cons, of course. Someone once said to me when my first two kids were about 4 & 2, "Enjoy this- it will never be as nice as it is right now". In some ways they were SO right- and the time they are still innocent like this is SO short......I am not idealising motherhood by any means but I often think back to that remark.
(I get the "it is so nice with Shane away" thing.It isn't necessarily ominous you know- when there is just one parent there you can just go ahead and run the show however you feel like it-which is mentally a lot easier even though (maybe) physically harder.
Take care,
