Sometimes You Just Have To Laugh To Save Your Sanity

Tonight was one of those crazy nights around our house. Blake had football practice until about 7:15, Lyndell was working late, and I was running crazy! As soon as we got home, the boys wanted to play outside. It was already late, but I figured it would give me a few seconds to get some things done. The last words out of my mouth were, "just don't get too dirty, please!" I should have known better.

A short while later, I was carrying a basket of laundry into the laundry room , while talking on the phone to Lyndell. Ayden and Cordell, covered in mud, darted in and stuck their prize catch of a frog in my face. I dropped the laundry basket to the floor. Unfortunately it landed on the cat. Shadow, the cat, sped out leaving claw marks all across my foot. I can't exactly blame this on him though! We got a bowl and created a frog habitat. I always have a collection of various critters in my house. Right now, we have the frogs and a lizard.

I put the boys in the bath and called my mom to tell her about our crazy episode. She laughed so hard! I decided sometimes you just have to laugh to save your sanity!
