Well folks, as the economy keeps declining and life continues to grow more and more interesting all over, we too have joined the masses and have been bitten by the un-employment bug. Kamron was laid off two weeks ago, but we figure, such is life, we're not alone in this crazy struggle and besides, there is much to be celebrated about it...
With Kamron home all the time now:
With Kamron home all the time now:
*I get more time with my very best friend
*He gets more time to play with the kids and get to know each one better
*We occasionally cook together
*We went together to Parent-teacher conferences last week
*He folds his own laundry for me (and sometimes helps with the other laundry too)
*I get adult conversation during the day (this is HUGE as usually a 6 month old, a 1 year old and a 4 year old aren't much up to date on modern day topics)
*He drives me to work when the weather is bad
*Sometimes he lets me sleep in
*I even caught him cleaning the toilet the other day!! (I'm one lucky woman!!)
So yes, much to be celebrated - and on top of all that, I have now decided there is no time like the present to get back in school to get my degree.
So to my list of job descriptions that looks a little something like this:
Full time mom (to 6 kids, and two of them are under 2)
part-time worker
housekeeper
master chef/chauffeur/taxi driver/crime solver/fight referee/comforter/philosopher/teacher/therapist/doctor/advisor/ and wiper of tears, noses (and bums)
I now proudly add:
Full time student.
You read that right folks, I am one busy woman living in complete chaos and loving every minute of it!!
