I LOVE MY KID'S

I am sure everyone can remember what is was like when all of our kid's were small. Little ones arguing over who got the biggest scoop of ice cream or who's turn it was to do the dishes. It is a wonder that with our seven kid's anyone survived. But as we watch them grow into adults and move into their own homes something wonderful has happened. Inspite of all logic my children really love each other. I love that everyone comes to the house after church for linner (lunch dinner combo). Cynthia will brings dessert, Mel will make a salad and Andrea will come and help out with whatever we need. Katrina and Sarahissa will do the dishes and Alexis will polish the Silver. The boys take out the trash or help bbq. Ryan makes sure we always have the water cooler full. The best part is that we sit and eat and laugh and talk. I know that no matter what happenes our family watches out for each other.

I hear you! I love that my kids do the same thing. Yesterday everyone who lives close enough to us came for Labor Day linner (I love that term because the kids have always hated it)! The fun part is when the grandkids come too. It really is amazing that after all of the battles we fought and the kids fought with eachother, they would do anything for each other now and they are the best of freinds. We must have done something right.
