This Week with Six

 We have six kids this week for several days.  Six is a lot.  I don't know how my parents did it.  I neglected all of my housework this week.  I replied to all distress calls and considered ever clever request.  I comforted and distracted and encouraged and convinced.  For days I found myself in one silly conversation after another.
 We stayed home and had adventures and good meals together.  And when absolutely necessary we went out. 
Their parents picked them up today and we already miss our surrogate brothers.

Your sweet girl totally & absolutely outnumbered! Wish we lived close enough so I could just drop my boys off at your house. They'd love it!
