Many, Many Children

The house was full of children today.  Lots and lots of children.  First of all, we had our two children, which is not many children.  But then we had Bryan's three children, Donovan, Milianna, and Victoria with us.  While Donovan was happy to be here (he always is), Mila and Evie were not.  They don't know us very well and aren't used to being at our house, so they were not super excited.  Every time I stood up to go do something, even if it was to cross the room, they would freak out and start crying.  I spent most of the day next to them on the floor.  That makes five.

Then we had the Olyers come over, Jarom, Sarah, and Sam.  They were in and out and up and down with our kids, all running around and doing stuff.  And last but not least, Cailin Atkinson came over and stayed too.  We had to have hot chocolate and lunch and snacks and more snacks and try not to step on little people.  It was pandemonium.  I was soooooooooo grateful Kent was home from work and could help.  And I'm equally grateful that two children is all the children we have.
