Happy Saint Valentine's Day!



The Love Multiplies.

When we had one child, we were on a power play.
With two children, we played man-to-man defense.
With three, we switched to zone defense...and the kids had a power play.
Four, we were double-teamed.
 I don't think there is a term for 5 on 2.

We pulled in the driveway. The snow started falling hard. It was getting cold. The children were spent, as we were just getting home from the circus we call grocery shopping. I was trying to unlock the front door, with Nate on one hip and Tom on the other. Sarah and Joseph were fighting over who would get to be the line leader and enter the house first. The door opens, and we all trip up the step into the house. Sarah looks at Joseph and says, "Mommy is so strong. She can carry three babies at once!"

That's right, Bean. The new baby counts too.
