So, I decided a funny “family oriented” story would be a nice change of pace from W.E.‘s political rants. I have tons of hilarious stories about my kids, but thought I would just share one.
Ok, and sorry this is probably major birth control for all you childless people out there.
Background: I have four daughters.
E is 9, J is 7, K is 3, and S is 2.
They all have their own personalities, but K has been the most crazy of our kids so far. She is tiny weighing the exact same amount as S.
I am not using this as a bragging notation, but as an explanation on this kid’s energy level: she crawled at 4 months, pulled herself up to furniture and walked around it at 6 months, walked by 9. She didn’t sleep a full night until she was about 3. She had had 2 surgeries for her constant ear/sinus/eye infections by the time she was 15 months. This kid kicked my buns as a mom.
2nd background info: Hubby is a workaholic and travels a lot for work.
3rd background info: PTA as a “Reflections” contest at the school where kids can enter their “artistic creations” and get awards. Our oldest, E, is a great story writer, so I forced her (kicking and screaming) to enter the contest. She won at the school level and was going to get an award at the regional level. We got a call to come to the awards ceremony. Hubby was out of town. Here’s the story I wrote the night after the ceremony.
This was last year E is 8, J is 6, K is 2 and a half, and S is 1.
