I was told last week that I spend too much time with my kids. Too much time?!? What is that? But then I look at this blog and think "It has been that long since I've been here?" I don't know how some people do it. Granted we were without a computer for about six months. And we bought a house and moved. And we are now in the midst of renovating said house...
Too much time with my kids... The concept simply blows my mind, to be honest. The time flies by and they all grow so fast. Before I know it, they are verging on adulthood. Talking about roadtrips across the country with friends from Not Back to School Camp that I have never even met.
And I learned the hard way that you never know how long you may or may not have with them. It has been almost 2 years since Jossilyn's AML relapsed. It is still hard to watch the others grow and always know that she never will. I expect it always will be. Not that I am sunk in despair--far from it in fact. That was not what she was about at all.
I have never gotten to the point of saying I have 5 kids instead of 6. That is always awkward for others. And now I have 6 in the house once more. Kelsey's friend Alysha has been living with us for over a month now. It changes the dynamics of the household somewhat but we love her as part of our family. I forget how different schooled kids can be from my own. She is going to go to the local high school, since I am not a legal guardian yet. But we plan on broaching the subject with her father soon. It will make our lives so much easier--both for schooling and SCA purposes.
Too much time with my kids? They have got to be kidding!
