I own a Zoo.

I watched my children playing this morning and with a cup of tea in hand I sat there praying for half their energy! Bryce and I watched Date Night the other day and all those movies that we used to watch about children and parenthood never really hit home. After Sarah came, it was more of a reality check. After Char, it was a most definately a lifestyle connect. A scene of 'Phil' and 'Claire' in the car where they were arguing about her behavior at 'Hollbrook's' house definately hit home. Especially the part where she said that 'It's always a SHOCK EVERY NIGHT that we have to wear pajamas!' When the girls were super tiny, I would have laughed almost scoffingly at the fact that it can't be that hard to get children into pajamas! Haha, yeah sure. There is nothing like true life experience that causes true laughter at movies like those! The saga of bedtime is just getting harder and harder as time progresses. Bryce chased Sarah through the house while she screamed 'No night nights no night nights!' And Char, well after I managed to get a diaper on her wiggly, rolling, laughing butt, Bryce wrangled her into a nightgown. Jammies with pants at this point in our life is just too much. So the nicknames for our daughters are very appropriate. We have our Monkey and our Bug... With all the horses, cows, sheep, chickens, and dogs around here, I would have to very joyfully say... I am the proud owner of a Zoo!
