Count Me Out March 19, 2013, at 9:06 pm | I just reached another (dubious) milestone in parenting: I purposely miscounted the number of spaces in a kid’s turn at Chutes and Ladders in order to get that silly game to end! There was no way I was going to let Susie slide all the way down when she was only a few turns from finishing, especially when it was already past bedtime. I was just grateful the girls didn’t notice and correct my counting!

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy! Feel free to e-mail me at: [email protected].

When you’re a mother – there are many times when the ends justify the means!! Soon you won’t be able to get away with anything – so enjoy it while you can!
Oh, so true!
Ha ha! I did that when I babysat too. Or I’d turn two pages at a time in the books I was reading to them, but if they were really paying attention, I always got caught 😉
