The kids have sure been loving these five days in a row off school, but I am exhausted. I am so done with entertaining and chauffeuring and junk food and chauffeuring and cleaning and chauffeuring and calming and chauffeuring. When is my day off?
Yeah, yesterday morning the first thing out of the kids' mouths were, "Who do we get to invite over?" My response was, "No one! We've had more playdates and sleepover over the past week than any mom should have to deal with. Today we clean and then you can do whatever you want to for the rest of the day as long as it doesn't involve me." Still didn't work though. At least you were probably nicer about it!
Welcome to our family blog where you can find the latest on our family and read all about Spencer's battle with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (subtype M5). He was diagnosed in January 2012 and has been in remission about 10 years now. Every day he is in remission is a gift to us.
In amongst the leukemia updates you'll find a random conglomeration of humorous, boring, goofy, and inspiring tales (with photos of course) from the adventure of our life with five kids. An adventure that we're taking ...a day at a time.
