the draper fire.....

So scary!! My house smelled like an old smoky casino all night!! How scary for these homes that were threatened by this fire. It made me scared to think what if that was my house. What would I grab, what would I do? Scary thought...just glad everyone is ok.

I know, I know.... I'm REALLY behind!!! So, for years people have been telling me to read these books. Because my children are night owls, I don't get much time to my self at night....that is until 1 week ago!! I finally started the first book...and now I'm on the 3rd! Basically, my kids just do what they want, Jake can get KY what she needs, right?!?! Jake and Ky can make their own food, clean, do laundry, etc....right?!?! Well, good thing they have just let me be for parts of the day and they just go play with Jason at night when he is home so i can read. I'm so obsessed with these books!! Well, that's all - i gotta get back to it!!

PS....who else is obsessed with these? Please tell me that if you are you houses are total messes too!!!
