He's in bed. Sound asleep as far as I can tell.
Will someone please tell me how anyone survives small children? How do you clean your teeth, make meals, keep up with laundry, fulfill church callings, have friends, read the sriptures, grocery shop, make your bed, work outside the home, volunteer in the schools and community, sleep and keep your marraige alive through the hours and hours that demanding little ones are awake?!! In the last couple of hours I have managed to feed him, put the dishes away, feed him some more, do (or should I say, help baby do) sommersaults, follow him around the porch while he pulled rocks out of the owner's potted plants, play with him in an empty tub, help him play in the kitchen sink, get him a drink or two, feed him some more, change his diaper, change his clothes, read him a story, sing him songs, put warm pants on him for his nap, put him in his crib, take him out into the kitchen to see if he needs a drink (nope, just wanted out) and finally settle him (or should I say quietly leave him screaming) in his little bed for a nap. Whew! Just about 8 more hours till Mama gets home, but who's counting?!!

You did it once before with your boys, you just don't remember that far back:) You're getting old and senile:) Or maybe your just exhausted from chasing a youngin around all day.
the difference is when it's your own kids you don't do nearly all those things for them anymore :) they sort of learn the art of fend.
Oh, thank you. But you forgot "exercise". How does a mother of young 'ens find time to exercise?
You forgot the most important question--how does a young mother find time to BLOG? Sheesh, my kids seriously cut into my blogging time. The little chumps.
