Mr. Mom

May 1, 2008

I’ve taken the next 2 days off from work so I can stay home while Julie goes to Women’s Conference down at BYU. She gets to go and enjoy a couple days listening to great speakers and hanging out with her mom and sisters. Well, actually only ONE day with her sisters because the other husbands were too afraid to spend 2 DAYS home alone taking care of their kids (c’mon, guys, MAN UP! ). So I’m here with the 6 kids. This will definitely be the longest I’ve ever been in charge of that many kids. Hopefully we’ll be able to do something fun in addition to just keeping my head above water. I wanted to take the kids over to the park later. But as I sit here looking out the window at the SWIRLING SNOW IN FREAKING MAY I guess that’s not going to be possible. Oh, when will it end??? I just have to remind myself that (supposedly) summer really is coming and McCann announced their quasi-annual 4 free Fridays yesterday. Apparently most years they give you 4 additional Fridays that you can take off between Memorial Day and Labor Day that don’t count against your paid time off. Woohoo! That’ll be nice. I just hope it stops snowing in time for me to use them. Well, I’d write more, but Eden just started screaming, Roman just woke up, and I need to work on a book report with Soren . . . so more later!
