An open letter to my parents.

Dear Mom and Dad,

As a child I remember all the fun I had on Christmas and summer breaks. The last bell would ring at school and I would run out of school just knowing that there was fun to be had at home. I would beg for sleepovers, swimming pool parties, TP fun (toilet papering), summer and Christmas trips and of course keeping busy at home. Probably making a big mess out of something you just cleaned. Not once did I ever think about your thoughts on the whole break thing. Now that I have three kids at home I owe you an apology.

A BIG ONE!!!

I’m praying for school to start back up for my kids and it’s only day one of Christmas break. There excitement is contagious but all I really want it to see the back of my eyelids and for someone else to feed them. Yes, it’s true that payback does happen in life and I feel like I’m finally starting to see it.

Baths, what’s that? Makeup you won’t see that on me. Pajamas are usually on until lunchtime so Mr. Postman don’t judge when I come to the door. I just finished cleaning the 10^th diaper of the day, barely just cleaned the kitchen from breakfast, it’s possible that kids still have on their pj’s but there is a ton of excitement about being home from school.

One last thing… when do you want to keep your grandkids? They are available the next two weeks.

Love,

Your daughter
