Doubling the Family

Well for the past week we have been babysitting/housesitting for our friends the Whatcotts. They went to France for a week and asked Michelle and me if we would watch their kids. We agreed so we moved into their house for a week to look after their four kids. It was actually a lot of fun, but Michelle and I both said it is a good thing that people don't generally go from 1 to 5 kids. When you just add 1 kid every 2-3 years you gradually go insane and don't realize it instead of instant insanity.

Grace had the most fun. She loved having her "friends" to play with and she cried every morning when they got on the bus to go to school. Whether it was playing jedi knight with a light saber or jumping in the leaves it was more fun with other people. She misses her friends but is now super excited to have a little brother or sister come May. Of course Michelle and I will be prepared for some more insanity, but isn't that what kids are all about?
