Toddlers, Preteens, and Dinner
Wow! I’m going to be honest here. I have no idea what happened anywhere but my house today. It’s not that I’m being lazy. I agreed to watch my boyfriend’s nephew. He’s only two but he’s a real good kid. Then the preteen that stays here was babysitting his nephew, who is almost two. So there you have it, two toddlers and a preteen.
I would have loved to step back and let the preteen help me out. However, every time I did the toddlers started fighting. My trailer has an open floor plan. So I should be able to walk into the kitchen to cook dinner. Even though I could see them from the kitchen, every time I went in there they started fighting over toys and hitting each other. Just so you know, one toddler will listen to a preteen, two toddlers will not.
Not sure how I did it, but I managed to get pork chops and green beans cooked. As soon as I ate, I was able to sit in the living room. As long as I was in there, they weren’t fighting over anything. Now to find my mind before going to bed.
