*I've decided that, because of odd work and living situation (the subject of this post) I am in for the first half of January, I am going to make the "1 post a day" rule really mean "1 post in a day that isn't necessary ending at midnight."*
What do a house, 3 cats, 2 dogs and 2 teenagers have in common? They are all being watched after by me. At the same time. And in this short time that I've been here I've learned something(s) about family dynamics.
1. I now know why babies are born small, cute, and helpless. Because if they we born as teenagers their parents probably wouldn't want them.
2. Family ties run deep and are hard to break.
3. It's difficult knowing what to cook and what food to buy to prepare for a different family. What if they don't like pulp in their orange juice?
I'm expecting more but for now it is time for bed. I also, now, retake my stand against high schools starting before 8. Blasted 6.30 wake ups.
You can make 1 a non-qualifying statement, no aren't would want their teenager if the preceding years never happened. Of course, in that case it wouldn't be their kid anyways. But that's besides the point.
