My brother and sister-in-law just had their seventh baby, and for the 4 day weekend, my parents have all of their kids. My mom called me this evening.
“Becky, I just want you to know how much I can really appreciate all you and Andi do to keep your houses clean.” We laughed at the energy it takes just to keep up with the kids. She then said, “Yeah, if I were doing this every day, I would need a maid!”
I really needed to hear that! This is a challenging time of life. I’m not a big weenie. Thanks, mom! You’re the best!
