What the heck was I thinking!!! My son’s birthday was on the 20th, he’s a whole 12 years old (talk about feeling old)! Today, I am having his birthday party here at our house. I should have had it at the park or something because people are gonna be here around 12 and I still have a ton of cleanup to do around here.
I have done pretty well with the cleanup inside the house but I still have so much to do. I have to clean the girl’s room, wash a bunch of towels, cleanup outside and still decorate the house! Remember, I am a single dad so there is only one of me to go around. All this, while making sure the kids are bathed, fed, and generally taken care of.
Thank god for my mom. She really helped me out by buying a lot of the plates and snacks & stuff. My sister too. She’s bringing some stuff over as well. Tell ya what; if it weren’t for my family I think I would go nuts! Or at least I would be a little nuttier than I already am.



I’m supposed to bring something? oops.
I would have helped you clean if you had mentioned it. Don’t stress. It will be fine.
Family can be wonderful helping out when most needed. Glad yours are helping you. Happy Birthday to your son! And, what were you thinking?!
