I'm all alone.... ahhh

Today was the first time in over 4 months that I was alone with all three of my boys. Jim got free tickets to go and see the Canadian Olympic Mens Hockey team. They were in Edmonton and signing autographs and visiting with people. He was really excited to go and so I was glad to watch all the kids. I thought that it would be no problem... we went for a walk a few blocks away to go to the dollar store and then to the grocery store. I could not believe how stressed I was. They weren't doing much wrong, they wern't even touching very much stuff, they stayed by me, but I was lossing my mind. They were trying to make Parker laugh and he was just rolling with laughter which was making things worse. The sound was just escallating louder and louder. Brock is loud naturally, so if you know him you can imagine what was going on. Then I had to get them supper and put them to bed all BY MYSELF!! I think that I'm going to have a rude awakening when I do go home. Life will be a lot different then it has recently been, for a lot of reasons, but I'm excited for the next phase. I'm glad that it's summer and that I live close to my mom.
