Thank Goodness

I realized something today, as Ryan finished mopping the kitchen, that is going to start getting easier from this point on. The kids are starting to be able to assist us in picking up, they are able to perform some chores by themselves (instead of making us take twice as long completing ours), Ryan is such a good boy that he scraps his plate after each meal, all by himself!

Before they got to this point, I felt like the butler, the chef, the maid (hate that uniform), the tour guide, and a chauffeur. I guess that last one isn't likely to go away for at least 15 years, though, probably longer.

In summary, things are looking up.
