How Much I Love My Girls....Let Me Count

1. I mentioned that we are getting pool. Kids: CAN WE HAVE A PARTY Me: Sure, when we get it finished.
2. I now have to listen to them plan their swim party (that will happen at the end of the summer, how smart am I for mentioning that so early).
3. I have to listen to them fight about which friend belongs to them.
4. I love the glasses. Taylor has already had to have her repaired.
5. This morning, Taylor leaves her glasses at home. Tim rode to town with us (he's saving gas) so he was feeling all sorry for her. She was blubbering in the backseat because she really wants her glasses and she did not mean to leave them at home. Don't we have enough time to turn around and go back. ON, and On, and On, etc.
Tim says to Taylor, don't worry, Kaye will drive out to the house on her lunch break and get your glasses for you. WHAT??????? Did I leave the glasses at home NO! I say nothing. I get to work and my cell phone rings...school number shows on the caller ID...I think maybe she found her glasses in her purse....NOT!!!! THAT WOULD BE TOO EASY!!!! Taylor is blubbering again.
Taylor: KAYE KAYE
ME: WHAT
TAYLOR: I NEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING
ME:WHAT
TAYLOR: DON'T BE MAD
ME: !!!!!WHAT!!!!!
TAYLOR: I LEFT MY GLASSES OUTSIDE LAST NIGHT IN A TREE BY THE TRAMPOLINE!
ME: IN A TREE?!?!?!?!?!!(I think to myself...I have to look in a tree at lunch, get all dirty, we have a funeral this afternoon...I'm gonna....do something to this child)
TAYLOR: YES THE TREE BY THE TRAMPOLINE, I'M SO SORRY!
ME: OHHHHHH. I'M MAD. GOODBYE
I decided that I needed to head back out to the house right then and look for them. My best friend Dianna had stopped by my work (with a treat for me, a cute Vera Bradley Make-up Case and slippers) anyway...lost track there....I ask Dianna to ride back out to the house with me (she's a stay at home mom-bite me)We get to my house walk all the way around the yard to the trampoline and there the glasses are in a tree.....I don't want to say that I could kill her...DHS would hunt me down. Let me tell you this...if Dianna had not rode with me...I would have gotten madder and madder. Taylor should thank Dianna! I took her glasses to the school. She comes down the hall smiling.
Taylor: I love you Kaye Kaye, just let me give you a hug and kiss you right by your cute little eye.
Me: Stuff it. You did not tell me where those glasses were at on purpose. You did not want Tim to know where they were left did you?
Taylor: But I love you so much
Me: love you too

SHE'S SO FULL OF CRAP. But I do love her, let me count the ways.
