only backgroundI'm a wife, mother and grandmother. I'm opinionated. I contradict myself frequently. Most of all, I love my kids. I believe in them. I fight for them. They're weird and wonderful. If you want to know more, here's a bunch of other stuff from my old site.
Houseful of Kids

The way it is: my husband does not like when the kids have friends stay overnight here. I guess it all goes back to the way he was raised and the way I was raised. We had friends stay overnight a lot. We stayed over at friends’ homes. My husband didn’t do that. No sleepovers.
So since he’s in Hawaii, the kids have their friends here. Josh and Cody are here with Boomer and Levi and Amanda is here with Maggie. And I love it. It would be this way every day if that were possible.
The girls and Levi are awake, the other boys are still asleep. Before long, they’ll all be awake, eating cereal and getting ready for the Super Bowl. I’ll have to get Amanda and Josh home during half time, though, since there’s school tomorrow.
Which brings me to my final thought. Shouldn’t the day after the Super Bowl be considered a national holiday? I’d be willing to give up President’s Day or something for it. Shall we start a petition?

Tomorrow is going to be hell, I can already tell
It should be a holiday!
Tomorrow should definitely be a holiday to recover and clean up after all the mess! I wish I had the space for the boys to have more friends over more often, when I was younger I was always sleeping over or having someone over to hang out with too.
I agree we all need the day off tomorrow! LOL!
I love having kids friends over and Jeff hates it. We try to find a good balance. My parents NEVER let me have someone over or go somewhere on a school night. I allow Jeremy to do that.
