For the next 2 nights and 3 days I am the "mother" of 3 handsome, rowdy, lovable boys.
My own son (2.5) , and my friends 2 little boys (2 & 3).
My dear friend and her husband have gone away for a wedding and some much needed r & r. I count it an honor and a privilege that she thought enough of me (and Ben, although he'll be here very little due to his work schedule) to care for her precious boys.
When she asked me, I agreed without hesitation. She's like a sister to me, and I love her boys like little nephews.
Besides, how hard could it be?

Now that you're done laughing; can I just say that I don't know how you moms out there with more than one child do it?
It's only 4, and I'm EXHAUSTED.
We took a walk, we played basketball, we played outside, and downstairs in the play area, and I haven't even started dinner.
I could use a strong drink right now. Specifically a venti caramel macchiato with extra everything right now.
You may ask, "How are you able to be on the computer at this very moment?"
It's a little thing called happy hour...i mean nap time ..my friends.

Hark....I hear the pitter patter of little feet.
Until next time...send up a prayer for this mother of one; caring for 3. : )
