Once upon a time, there was a Mom who watched 9 kids for a day. (4 of them were her own, 5 were her nieces and nephews). And she didn't have all 9 kids ALL day (G'ma took some off her hands when she got done with work early that afternoon!) But she was glad it was sunny and warm (72 degrees) out, because all 9 kids and her played outside all day.
Here's a peek at what they did that day- 1 Mom with 9 kids on that warm, sunny day~
All the girls, minus Katie (she was with 'the boys') and Tubby: playing mtg.
The trio: Benji, Jacob and tag-along Katie took a walk in the woods
John tried to pull stumps out.. with his bare hands
Benji, Katie and Jacob dug for worms in the woods, because Boppa is taking them fishing (sometime)
John helped put the rocks back on the fire pit
Meri played ball with me
Larissa relaxed in the warm sun
4 boys, 5 girls... just sitting.....
my family for the day..
Katie, Benji, John, Jacob, Larissa, Wyatt, Emily, Meri and Carolyn

Oh how much fun... For them and for you! I wish we had that much room outside to play!
Lots of kids, lots of fun. You are a good mom and aunt. Of course you know you are a wonderful daughter.
Thanks for the peek into that day =) How DID you get ALL of the kids to sit like that???? (was a bribe involved ;-)
