Last Sunday Mom’s friend Laura came over to take some more family picture. I am not so fond of that, as it’s much harder to avoid being in the picture when that happens. Oh well, just one of the many sacrifices that a loving and dedicated Dad is willing to make.
Yesterday we had Laura’s younger older son Ethan over for a visit. Although Mom and Laura are the same age, Ethan is college. We will be taking an extended business trip in the near future and we were checking him out as a temporary nanny for the boys (Grandma will get stuck with Princess Grumpy Pants — she’s a full time task all by herself. Alice, that is. Grandma’s not that hard to take care of). Ethan agreed to endure the boys for a few days. We’ll see what he looks like afterwards.
