Summer time Joys

half way through the summer and we have survived so far... although the fighting has started to pick up... jake is in skate camp thsi week which helps get him out of his sisters hair for a while! only a couple more weeks then its his birthday and a week later they start school again! woohoo for me.... its getting hotter liek 92 in the shade right now... today i decided that i would checkin on the kids rooms ... ihave been trying to let them do their chores alone and give them a little responisbility to take care of the things they are supposed too... well the expirement failed miserably.... yeahhh took me all morning to clean their rooms... clothes, trash, dirty clothes, toys, books EVERYWHERE.... ummm yeah... not liek they havent been taught a million times that stuff goes in its spot... sighs.... adn that when we are done with stuff we put it back.... but i guess it doesnt apply to the black hole that is their rooms... other universal rules apply once you pass the threshold.... chores are always a battle... adn the kids have now started to be nosey about other peoples chores.. mom she hasnt done her chore or KEARA that doesnt go there... ohh the joys....
