Never a dull moment in this house of mine. Just last week I caught the 3 little ones out the upstairs window on the roof. Yeah! I guess they were practicing the fire drill? It scares me to think what might have and could have happened had I not gotten up there when I did. They had only been up there a couple of minutes before I ventured up to check. I was telling this story to some friends of mine from Arkansas and their oldest (age 15) asked, "Who was watching them?" After some chuckling I answered. "I was." Even when you watch them, there is always a moment they find to do something totally unexpected.
I always thought I wanted an older 2-story house like the one we are living in now. Wrong. Unless of course I didn't have children. Ok, maybe not even then. I have begun to dread climbing the stairs to check on little ones, get kids up in the morning, clean and ensure my youngest haven't ventured outside. We have found a place in the country that should do the trick. No more 2-story climbing on the roof. If they fall out a window, they'll survive. Guaranteed. While I dread moving again, I embrace the idea of safety. Safety for my children, my sanity and my household in general.
