I wish I could go somewhere to play all day where people made me French toast and let me nap.
Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

Okay, if you come down when billytea is here, I'll make you french toast and let you nap!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
OH! We had billytea over last night! Em said "Poncy bugger" for him and yelled at the dog.

Cash, when billytea is here (August 31), can you bring the Os down to go to the zoo with us?
Ayup. Are you going in the morning on Thursday? We can definitely make that.

What is even happening?
That's sounds just right, Aimee. I'd say she's doing really well. She's just feeling the change. Life is full of changes, and we don't always like them, or even if we do, we don't always like them right off the bat. Crying is one of her only ways of casting her vote, and since she's happy at the end of the day, it doesn't sound to me like she's voting, "This place sucks," so much as she's voting, "WTF. Don't I get any say, here? Respect my author-tay!!! Oh! Dollies!"
This is why I started taking O to DC part time now. I want him to socialize and be ready for me to drop him off before we start preschool and kindergarten. Plus, it gives me some more time with Liv so she gets a little undivided attention.
I really think this is a good move, all around, Cashmere. I tried to get a niece and later a cousin's daughter to come over and be a mother's helper (for pay), but it ended up being like having another kid of my own, I think because of the family connection. My kids all started pre-school when they were three years old, though, and I know they needed it. My boys needed it more than Julia, because they're just less social and far more change averse.

It'll take us 2 hours to get there, so maybe we can plan for late morning (10:30-11:00). We can have lunch there and head home in the afternoon.

Stupid Target.com. I was told to "try again later."

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Cindy, K-Bug was a mother's helper for a neighbor a couple of summers ago. The family had adopted 5 kids and she liked having K-Bug over even if it was to just watch some of the kids while she bathed the others. I can't imagine going from zero to five kids and being able to balance all the parental stuff.
