Just Like Uncle Ben

Any parent of just one child would think that the parents in these photos are just plain irresponsible, but I have to explain that these are both third kids - it's called surviving.

Mommy had to take a quick shower before facing another busy day. She was organized, breakfast was ready. An older sibling helped her sister out of the crib and off she went. The photo reminded me of another time, another place.

I think the story on this one is similar . . . it was 25 years ago.

I'm smiling. I think I have a peanut butter photo in my files that looks much like that...about 30 years old. So cute!

:-) 3rd children get away with so much more than firstborns! Makenna has all 4 of us tied around her little finger.
