I don't think I would have survived with my sanity intact without them.<br /><br />I don't judge you at all for McDonald's. Christian and I end up taking the kids to Chik-fil-a once every week or two, and if the CFA near our house is too busy, we hop on down to McDonald's. Because where else are there highchairs aplenty, and a place to play after everyone's done eating? {Answer: nowhere.}<br /><br />When I get extra frustrated during the day and it still seems too long before Christian gets home, I stick all my kids in the car and just drive. I like to get on the highway because I feel like I'm going somewhere as fast as possible, and that feels good. I also like to drive into rainstorms, if there's one available. The atmospheric angst is soothing. Does that sound crazy? Maybe it is. But so is having so many kids so close together.<br /><br />Sorry for this novel of a comment...Mary { marys last chance }https://www.blogger.com/profile/13655936880386416958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1147312878657678801.post-20150823879825919142013-01-29T21:08:20.934-05:002013-01-29T21:08:20.934-05:00Ha!

It makes me worry about my sisters when I read things like this, I wish they were closer to family so they could get breaks on the little things every once in a while.<br />Also, I still eat at McDonald's every once in a while too...it's a big 'ol Dr pepper and a Medium fry for me :)ReLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06408648962903216798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1147312878657678801.post-7047508985685828832013-01-29T07:58:53.379-05:002013-01-29T07:58:53.379-05:00You're gonna miss this

Then it's nothing but up from there. Until they turn into teenagers, I've been told. It will feel like forever, but it will end!!Sherwood familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13147895345679709682noreply@blogger.com
