Today I took Loryn my niece(11), and Michael's cousins kids Brody(9) and Shania(11) to the mall with my three kids today. All and all the kids did really good. Candy was used at one point to keep kids quite but it was a good trip. This made me think of the years to come, I could have a 14 year old, a 12year old, and 11 year old all at once or worse. At what point are they all going to want new clothes and not so many hand me downs? At what point will Chloe be taller then Ashley yes I think this will happen. Ashley is my little peanut. We better hit the lottery because money is going to go quick. A hundred dollars between 3 kids and lunch for all went fast. I need to teach my girls about chores and allowance, Michael has been working on that with Emily already, but we need to do more. They are really going to have to "earn money" to get what they want. Sign my kids up for baby sitting and dog walking. I pray my girls have good attitudes as they get older and understand that mommy and daddy love them very much but can NOT always buy them what they want.
Ashley loved having a brother for a couple of hours she really like Brody. He was very sweet to her. I wish the girls had a brother to help stick up for them. Maybe one day the door will open up for Michael and I to adopt a brother for the girls. I would truly love that. I want a mamma's boy, I have three daddies girls. My girls did great today shopping for other kids they did not get anything them selves besides a lolly pop and lunch. I was truly proud of my girls and me, and the big kids too. We blended well I think, but you might want to check with the big kids.
