Blogging is going to be light today because I have the joy, and challenge of babysitting my triplet nieces. Yes, today I am alone with three 15 month old girls. Oh my! Despite the fact that there are three of them and only one of me, the girls are very well behaved. I'm almost shocked at how low maintenance they are. And when I say low maintenance, I mean that I was expecting there to be lots of crying, grabbing, and liquids shooting from every orifice. So far, Houston, we have no issues ;-)
I have a deeper appreciation for the mothers who blog. The girls are absolutely fascinated with anything electronic and shiny. They especially like anything with some kind of flashing light like a cell phone screen, the red light on the TiVo remote, and a laptop with a really big shiny screen.
I'm sitting here on the couch typing, and the little ones are huddled around me on the edge of the couch like groupies just dying to get a touch of their favorite rock star. I realize it's the laptop and not Auntie Steph that they are willing to rip off their diapers for, and that's okay. I'm just lucky to be here with them ;-)
So, today, pray for me and us that we make it through until 5pm when Mommy gets home. All I have to say is thank goodness for Baby Einstein, and shiny, spiny things.
