Cindy called me at work yesterday and her first utterance was, “So, have you ever seen a chicken running around after its head has been cut off?”
Assuming that one of our more curious-minded kids had asked her about this phenomenon, I replied in the affirmative, that yes, I had seen a headless chicken run down the alley when we butchered some behind our house in Walla Walla as a kid.
“Good.” she replied. “Now keep that mental image and think of me, for I am that chicken.”
Yes, on this day she had friends over for each of the 3 older kids, spent 3 hours in the van doing errands, cleaned the house, and then in the evening she hosted a book club meeting that required quite a bit of prep time in the kitchen. And I am sure that she did many other things as well, which, if you were to ask her, could be related to you in minute detail.
Multitasking beauty, thy name is Cindy.

I think all of us moms know that feeling! I wish I could have been at book club... my parents were in town, so it was kind of crazy around here.
You guys are such a wonderful family! I just love your blog... it's incredibly entertaining!
You know you love it Louis! C'mon you got to eat the leftovers, right! ;)
