The rest of the day I was a quasi-mother as I picked up the girls from school, helped them with homework, fed, entertained, undressed and PJed, and (attempted to) put them to sleep. I also gave the baby a bath and put his cozy sleeper on. Yum, I love babies right out of the bath. Spaghetti went over well, but was a little messy. S refused to go to sleep and I didn’t know what to do. The baby cried for the longest time in the crib, and tried calling every one of his parents and siblings to come save him. I took him out and he was happy but was SOOO tired so I put him back in. At the end of the night I was exhausted and wondered how does my sister do this every day? I clean the house and am exhausted. And think I need a medal in the Guiness world records. How do mothers accross the world have the energy, patience, dedication and stamina to deal with all that comes with child-rearing?! And with absolutely no thanks at all….
I guess it’s good they usually come one at a time, right?
. I didn’t end up getting to the mechanic in Kew Gardens till 1 oclock. They said they think it;ll be finished by the time they’re closed, but I should call around 4 to find out. Then he said there was something wrong with the alignment of the car, and I have to tell my Mom to call him. OK, just one problem, Mr., she’s currently out of the country…I called her and she was by a seminary performance, i’ll call her back soon.
