I have learned so much not only about myself but also about mothers in general. I have a new appreciation of the title of MOM.....yall do soooo much! I thought I knew but I had NO idea. Also, another appreciation of the single mom. I cant get over how much my sister does day after day being the only person to fix the meals, comb hair, brush teeth, dress, change diapers, wipe runny noses, calm crying child, playmate, teacher, rule setter, book reader, doctor, laundry maiden...obviously I could go on and on....im sure to her the tasks are endless. I only did it for 8 hours two days a week and I was pooped.
Im sitting here writing this because tomorrow is probably my last day to watch them on a consistent basis. I have had soooo much fun and have formed a life long bond with both of them that I know will only continue to grow. As their Aunt I hope to be this close them the rest of their lives. Thank you Crystal for letting me be such a big part of Tyler and Parkers life, it is an honor to be their aunt!!
Here are just a few of the fun things we like to do together....

OH did I tell you about the poop conversation I had with Tyler on Friday ...
incase I didn't .... here is the recap ... of tyler's train of thought. Hey Mommy "Monkey's go poo poo?" ... to which I answered yes ... and then in quick succession his thought process:
"mommy ... lions poo poo, giraffes poo poo, birdies poo poo, mommy poo poos, ray ray poo poos .... UNKEY poo poos ... UNKEY STINKEY poo poos" ... it went something like that ... nice right :)
