And they are gone

My mother-in-law has been here for the last two weeks with my niece. It has been interesting watching two very different 5 year olds interact. I do not have a relationship with my sister-in-law, but I feel like I should send her a bottle of wine. Her kid is a handful. Let's just say, she didn't like the rules of my house and told me she doesn't like me. (I do have a lot of rules, but it helps keep the sanity with two kids around.) They left this morning, and it is amazing how quiet the house is even with my girls still here. E also left yesterday morning for a DET. It is only for a few weeks, but Meeghan doesn't understand yet so it is has been hard listening to her ask for daddy. She scraped her knee, and really wanted to show daddy. I told her I would have to take a picture and send it to him since it would be gone by the time he was home. The upcoming a deployment is going to be hard for that little girl.

I still haven't looked through my pictures from the last two weeks. Hopefully I can do that soon. Between playing hostess and student, I haven't had much time on a computer.

  1. Enjoy your peace and quiet! I don't really have a relationship with my sister-in-law and her kid is a handful as well.

    1. It has been peaceful except for a few incidents. Now we need to figure out what to do with our days now that school is over.

  2. Send the wine. I bet your S-I-L would appreciate it.
    Isn't it amazing how peaceful your house is when guests leave? Even with your own kids around. As much as I enjoy company it's always such a relief when they leave.

  3. Aw. My daughter is a daddy's girl and hates when her daddy is away.

    1. I can't wait until they are older so they understand it better.
