Well, it seems I can be replaced.
And guess what? This is not bothering me in the least.
Tired Papa and I went away and left my trio with my thirty-something niece for the past four days and everyone survived.
I got some sun and time alone with Tired Papa, and when I came home tonight the kids were all alive and happy.
It was a win-win.
Darling niece? If you're reading this, I just want to say, I owe you.
Thank you.
I'm Leanne and I'm a tired mama. I work, I parent, I juggle and I don't seem to get enough sleep. Welcome to the place where I rant about all these things...





Welcome home! I'm only just a wee bit jealous you got to enjoy some warm sunshine.

Welcome home!! Glad you got some down time.
My mom watched my kids while in Hawaii and my kids keep calling me grandma by accident, yup totally replaceable and the scary thing is I think sometimes they would prefer grandma :)

Glad you're back! I hope you had a great time. Really, I'm only a little green with jealousy. Really.

That's great to hear you had a great time and came back to safe and happy kids. Are you going to share some details of your trip?
