So...

Things are going along very well for us lately!  The kids are doing well, I'm doing as much as I can whenever I can, and helping my mom out.  Except now though, while my parents are out of town, I'm still spending more time at their house than I am at my own, which makes me feel rather like I'm neglecting my oldest, who refuses to take the bus to my parents house and instead spends the afternoons taking care of our animals, which I guess is good since I don't generally get home in the evenings until fairly late.  But that's the price I'm paying for agreeing to help my mom.  And of course, taking care of their farm while they're gone, as they are likely to be for a while this trip.  Mom's fairly bad off, and the doctor doesn't think it's wise for her to be traveling 400+ miles each direction between homes, so they're staying at their other house until she's a bit better and more fit to travel.  And while I love staying at their house when they're not here, it gets fairly tiring...  Especially since I can't do any crafting while I'm at my parents, due to all of my supplies being at my own house!  But I'll figure it out.  I just hope my sister doesn't decide to invade again.  I only just finished cleaning up after her last two nights here turned into nearly a week!  😝. But that's all for now.  I need to get going and head home, but right now, I'm watching my sweet little boy enjoy a cup of hot cocoa with whipped cream, and for now, that's all I need to worry about.  ☺️  He really does enjoy his whipped cream!  lol
