Loooooong Days

Mr. Ashley is just now on his way home and I'm REALLY questioning my ability to be home alone with the kids all weekend.

In ten years, I've never been home alone. I've left him to go places for a weekend, but he's never left me. What if I get scared? What if I'm lonely? What if I like it so much that I change the locks? (With the kids outside?)

I don't know. It's a lot of work, this parenting stuff. I knew that already but I had no idea that doing it alone was 10x the work. And who knew that adding one kid would feel like adding 14? Because little kid keeps me BUSY.

We used to joke that little kid was born with middle child syndrome. Now I know he's just making sure that it NEVER happens.

I'm really tired just thinking about a weekend alone with the two I have, we definitely don't need a third. DEF-INIT-ELY NOT. Not unless it comes with it's own grown-up.
