Daddy Day Care

Well Daddy Day Care officially closed for the year Friday! Since daddy is a teacher and gets the summers off and mommy doesn't it was a big joke all summer that our kids went to "Daddy Day Care". I know keeping two kiddos all summer long, trying to find fun activies for them to do daily to keep them busy yet not break the bank is not always easy but daddy did a great job and i think the kiddos had a great summer. We are so thankful to have him as "our daddy"!!!! I am not going to lie and say my house did not suffer from daddy day care but i guess you take the bad with the good. Daddy's rules and Mommy's rules are not always the same. Just to name a few of Daddy's Rules: 1. it is ok to eat chicken pot pie in your room 2. you can get all the board games out at once and then when you don't feel like cleaning them up just throw all the pieces and the boxes in the toy box... create a new game connectfourmonoplysorryslidersyatzee... 3. you can wear WHATEVER you want no matter where you go... and showers and brushing your hair is optional... if you go swimming then that counts as a shower... 4. you can change clothes as many times as you want to.... it doesn't matter how many outfits you wear and for how long you wear them 10 mins. or 10 hrs... they are still dirty 5. it is ok to do arts and crafts in your room... glitter, paint, whiteout, markers, cut up tiny tiny pieces of papers, stickers, whatever... 6. it is ok to make your own drinks... don't worry if you spill kool aid all over the kitchen floor and don't clean it up... it will dry... 7. it is ok to make your own cheese tacos with shredded cheese and don't worry if you drop half the bag all over the floor... 8. it is ok to use ALL of the VALUE SIZE baby powder all by yourself if your legs are raw... and don't worry if the rest falls on the bathroom floor or bathroom rug... i think that is about all the "rules" i can think of... don't that sound like a daddy and kids dream come true and a mothers nightmare.... :) On the last day of Daddy Day Care they went to Richard's Aunt D's house to swim and to play with their cousins... they had a BLAST!

I think Daddy might be a "little excited" that he gets to go back to work tomorrow and that daddy day care has closed... and well me... i am excited to get my house back in order and detoxed from daddy day care!

Here's to enjoying the last 3 days of summer with my kiddos before school starts!
