Thank you dear mother in law, you are the best

let me just start by saying that I love being with my kids very much, I start to miss them even if I'm only going somewhere for a little bit which is probably a sign that I should get out more. I never really take much time for myself but I figured it was about time, and thanks to Billy's wonderful mother who happily cared for my children all day long I had a wonderful day all to myself, I got my hair cut ( yes a real haircut and it's styled something I've never in my life had done it's always been long and just there so this time I went for something different and cut it short, not very short to my shoulders but short for me), I went clothes shopping and was able to take my time and try on lots and lots of clothes (the last time I bought myself new clothes was my birthday last summer so it was well needed) and I actually got some really nice things that are flattering to my not so thin body, and then I went to my cake decorating class knowing my kids were in good hands and having fun so I can enjoy my time for myself. I always joke that as soon as we can afford it we are getting a live in nanny so I can go to the store and cook dinner and take a shower and maybe even go to the bathroom without little ones at my feet begging for food, or break dancing in the isles of the grocery store, or waiting at the door looking under it saying " I can still see you he he he", but then again if I had a live in nanny spending a day shopping without the kids wouldn't seem so nice. I might even do it again next month, I was a little worried about Holden being out of school for the next two months and keeping him busy but now I realize this is the perfect opportunity for him and Ashlynn to spend more time with their Oma and I'm pretty excited about it.
