I admire those who are able to balance work and children. Doing so is incredibly difficult.

You describe the hard life so well. But God watched for you now that you are totally happy with Wiley. And it does show how much he loves you.

Tough times Kabu , but it makes one appreciate life when it is easier . That is one memory that you will not forget. I wish you had kept some photos of the hard life. I suppose photos cost money in those days.

Hahaha!! Love it!
My son did the molasses and sugar one, but I bet corn starch was harder to clean up, and my son was alone. You've just reminded me that I'd better keep an eye on these rug rats of mine!!

Geez, what have I done? 
Well, hopefully you'll never have to clean up a mess such as that ever again! I'm sure you were probably furious at the time, but now, when you look back, you can chuckle to yourself, at least a little bit! A "white fight" now probably consists of a snowball fight, huh? Get ready . . . winter's nearly upon us! And keep the lid on the corn starch tightly secured!

It's a great story -- I can see the powder flying...
And two little guys in need of a bath. At least you got a nap. :)

Sweetheart I appreciate your thanks but you need only your talent to make anything you set your head to work. Be blessed. I can see those little boys, I had two of my own and what one could not think of the other did and they always were willing to cooperate one with the other.
