Wife and Mommy

I haven’t felt inspired to write recently.  Heck.  I haven’t felt inspired to do much of anything recently.  Hence the cluttered state of my house!

Preschool let out the Thursday before Memorial Day.  Um, hello??  You claim to follow the county’s calendar and yet you get out almost a month before the county…but I digress.  So Bito and Cupcake are spending a couple of weeks in camps, which is giving BabyMuffin and me some quality time together.  And when I say quality time, I mean he brings me every book in the house, every toy that Bito and Cupcake have left out, and every single shoe he can get.  Great fun for him!  We are also finding time to run several errands–Target, the bank, grocery shopping, etc.  

I am cherishing this time with BabyMuffin because he so rarely gets me all to himself.  I would say, “Poor youngest child,” but the truth is, I like that he has two older siblings around that dote on him (Cupcake) and push him around (Bito).  BabyMuffin is definitely learning good people skills being the youngest of three!

I’m also realizing that being with just one child is a piece of cake.  When Bito was a babe, I thought having just him alone was so difficult.  Little did I know!  These days, I feel so much freedom in buckling in just one kid.  Corraling him at the store is a breeze.  And he is so agreeable without his siblings around to pester him.

Still, I am so glad I have my three kids.  I love watching the dynamic of their sibling relationships develop.  I just hope I’ll say this two, three, four, ten years from now!
