We need you mom
Carolyn just got back from being at a Lake Ann Camp ladies retreat for a couple of days. The kids and I welcomed her back with this little video highlighting how things are without her. We’re glad she could go and deserves to get away for a bit–but we like it better when she’s here.

Two thumbs up! We laughed, we cried, well, mostly we laughed! I’m sure Carolyn loved it. She was probably surprised at how dramatic her children could be, although then again, maybe not!

Thanks Jennifer. We had fun doing it–the kids had the hardest time not laughing while we were recording.

[...] I love surprises - pleasant ones anyway. When I returned home from grocery shopping on Monday evening I was pleased to see a nice clean kitchen and dining room. Kristi had done a nice job of cleaning up after supper with a little (emphasis on little) help from Zachary and Josiah. Last week I went to a Ladies Retreat at Lake Ann and Kevin surprised me with a very funny video he made of the kids while I was gone. They are quite the actors. I’m sure things were far from chaotic with Kevin at the helm and the kids are very capable of keeping things running smoothly when I’m gone. I had a good laugh and I’m sure they had lots of fun making it. [...]

How cute!! I love it! Carolyn will probably gladly leave for another 48 hours next year if it compels the production of another video like that. ;-)
And who is that poor little smiley guy who suffered so obviously with an unmade bed? (Baby Josiah???) The horror! Yet another example of the abuse and neglect that runs so rampant among homeschoolers. *sigh* Forget the whales; save the homeschooled children!
You guys have a beautiful family! :-)
