This week has been a little bit fun, but a little bit sad. Sammie and Tyler took turns going to visit my parents. You’d think it would be easier having one less kid around for the week, but this has been a LONG week!
I realized a few things:
- Sammie is Tyler’s best friend. He’s a bit lost with out her.
- Tyler is Sammie’s best friend. Aww.
- Spencer is much calmer without Tyler around, but talks about him all of the time. Does that mean he loves to be annoyed? Sounds like a healthy sibling relationship to me.
- Sammie and Tyler entertain each other. I hear “I’m Bored!” a whole lot more when they are separated.
- The pool is much more fun when all 3 are there.
- It’s easier to cook for one less. Strange I know. Maybe there's just one more complaining about eating their food.
- Most important- I miss my kids when they are not near me.
So, while they had a wonderful time with my parents, I missed them and am happy to have my little group back. Maybe it’s good to have this experience so I can appreciate them. Check back in a few days to see if I still feel this way or if I’m ready to ship them back to grandma’s!
