Sadie-kitty dashes through the living room and I wonder what's on her agenda. One second later, Mae comes tagging after, scissors in hand, saying, "Wait, Sadie! I'm not done!" And just yesterday, Mae and Kyler decided to bathe their kitties. Like, in the bathtub filled with water. And they used actual shampoo on them. I don't think they quite understand the term 'animal cruelty', though they just might be frequent offenders. And no, you CAN'T have a pony, Mae. Gosh, I can only imagine...yikes.
We have been so busy lately that my mind hasn't caught up with the month. I keep thinking that this is the longest January ever. And then Kyler brought me a half-slip of paper on Friday for baseball sign up. Baseball! Already?! Not that I don't want it to be here; it's just that we're only halfway through the wrestling season and if my mind can't even get past January, how will it ever get to spring? Slow down, time. Just for a while, please.
Kenny started a new job today and I am no longer 'single mom by night'. It is tough running two kids everywhere they need to go. Single moms of the world, I salute you. There are bigger decisions to be made than you would expect. For example, Mae's tae kwon do class meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Kyler's wrestling practices just so happen to be on the same days, same times (but many miles apart). Obviously, this is a dilemma. I had to choose which kid got to do their activity. That's like choosing a favorite kid!! Now, Kenny gets one kid and I get the other and the world is at peace. Until Baby #3 is born, I suppose.
And time is up. I only had a few minutes between washing dishes and cooking supper and now it's off to homework and eating and swim lessons and bath times and as you can plainly see, time is not slowing down.
