I've been pondering this myself lately.<br />Also, I am currently convinced that a dog is a bad idea for my family (meaning, ME) and my kids want your idea of a gourmet breakfast.

I am typing this comment with one hand, holding a (finally!) sleeping baby in the other arm, after just having sent my older two children outside to play before I throttle someone. I am supposed to be preparing for a meeting this evening and getting the minutes from the last meeting typed up, but I checked in here because who can type minutes with one hand? <br /><br />It's nice to know other moms (and dads too) feel like this about their lives. Rinse and repeat. I know that it changes eventually, and I wouldn't trade it for anything, but holy smokes, some days....Jennifernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-51849422098645217062010-09-09T14:25:11.156-07:002010-09-09T14:25:11.156-07:00You get to clean up the dog vomit before bedtime? ...You get to clean up the dog vomit before bedtime?
