Conclusion of "Daddy's in Charge"

My wonderful wife returned after being gone for about 25 hours. She found us in the back yard. Today was the warmest in a few days, about 90 degrees. So we were cooling off with some water fun. Momma was greeted with a squirt from a water gun (one of the boys was wielding it, under dad's guidance :)).

Welcome home Momma!

My wife had a wonderful time, but is exhausted. She and one of her friends talked Friday night away. So instead of handing over duties as I had planned, I continued. I fixed supper - frozen burritos and cheese fries. Healthy it ain't. Momma put Ellie to bed and then put herself to bed, at 7:00 p.m.

I supervised clean up time and did the bed-time activities for the boys. They are now in bed and I'm watching TV (while writing this).

Conclusion: We survived in good form. And we are all happy to have Momma home.
