notice to the Coatl's godparents

[saffronhare]

The Coatl (aka Princess Sticky) is in high form today. She has started coloring all over Princess Boredom's "patron poster" (from KidSpace -- it's Hellenic); siezed two putty knives and trotted around the house waving them in the air; and begun speaking French (mon bot' seems to mean "my bottle").

All this before 9:30 a.m. Already, I am not keeping up, wildly incompetent houseparen that I seem to be today.

I am on my own for the next several hours. zylch will not be home until about 5 p.m. and agrnmn will not be home until about 10:30 p.m.

If you, or another compassionate local adult, would like to stop by for maybe an hour as a public safety measure, that would be swell. We might go patrol the neighborhood on this lovely day for a bit, but otherwise we'll be hanging in or around the homestead.

we're going to the marine corps reunion picnic here in a few but i could stop over afterward.

Honestly? More children would do very little to reduce the craziness. You're awesome to offer -- and I'd say yes if eldest daughter were home...and bored...

What I'm looking for is a little dose of non-breeder conversation. :)

Enjoy the picnic!

Whew - wish I'd seen this earlier.... thhhbt. iron_clad and I are headed out momentarily to go see The Chronicles of Riddick. (hopping up and down)
Have spent the afternoon combing the plaza over a fashion crisis.....am in a wedding next weekend in NYC - the bride had our skirts made then instructed us on the kind of blouse to aquire.... ....and it doesn't exist.

fashionista bastards....

I wish you good fortune with the coatle for the next two hours...

naw i was thinking of stopping over without the kids. but it's all good. figured you'd be too stressed out to add more kids so didn't plan on it. mac mentioned it but at the time it was after 5 and i figured it'd all be good at that time.

Yes, it's all better now. They're in the tub for a cool soak before bedtime. ::happy mommy dance::

And hubby will be home in only about 3 more hours. Got a lot done today, but it was all high-octane with the little ones.

See youse guys latah.

Yerk, wish we'd seen this earlier. We were out and about most of the day, and really not going to be much help (after RFB, half of us came back here and took a power nap), but we could have at least offered amoral support.

Glad things are under control at last.
