There I was, soaking in the largest jetted bathroom tub I've ever seen (we're talking like 12' X 12') in the largest bethroom I had ever seen (we're talking huge, pure luxury) and enjoying myself thouroughly, when a couple of random children came waltzing into the bathroom. I was like "Uhmm, can I help you?" My Mom came in and said "Oh sorry!" and ushered them quickly out. (Luckily, there was lots of bubbles in the tub). I had barely re-relaxed when a whole HERD of random little kids came into the bathroom, exploring, running, jumping, laughing, doing kid stuff! I was like "WHAT is going ON?!" I had barely said it when who should come in, but my dear cousin Sara! She apologized, and explained that she was their kindergarten teacher. She said that it had only started out as a couple afternoons a month, but before she knew it she was the full time teacher and she just really needed a break, so my Mom was babysitting the entire kindergarten for the day while Sara went to watch a frisbee game with her husband. My husband appeared and said that that sounded really fun to him, so he jumped into the back of their gorgeous black convertible (which I could see from where I sat in the tub. figure that one out.) and off they went! And I was stuck in the bathtub with the entire kindergarten!!
That's the last time I endulge in a whole pound of organic dark chocolate right before bed, I tell you what.
I was hoping that all the sawing and hammering and banging and drilling going on in the basement was Caleb finishing some more bedrooms. But alas, twas not.
Let me just say that no matter what we do in life, we should always find a way to make it happy. Of course there's nothing un-happy about going skiing, but even with things like working everyday forever and ever, and having a never-ending pile of laundry can be happy if we let it be. Working everyday = money. (But if you're in it for the money, I wouldn't recommend working at a ski shop. Heh.) Doing laundry = having a time to think, plus having the joy of fresh clean clothes! And... that's the end of my thought. :)
Ana, you're wonderful, smart, supportive, amazing mom, wife, and beautiful inside and out. WE LOVE YOU!!!
