store.

People often ask me how I manage life with five kids.  My first answer is always, "They are really good kids."  I mean it.  Sure they have their moments, but we really have been blessed with some pretty amazing little spirits to take care of.  The other morning they were all ready for school with tons of time to spare and they decided to make a store.  They gathered things from their bedroom and set up shop on the boys stairway (their room is in the attic).

They had signs posted all over the house.  "No credit cards!"  "No Smoking!"

My personal favorite..."Come to the store and buy as much as you can!"

"Graham's and Lincoln room!  Do not disturb!  OK!  And knock!"

"Closed!  Do not come in."

I'm so grateful that I have the children that I do.  And that they love each other so much (most of the time).
