Never Enough

These are a few things that we NEVER have enough of!!! Socks and chungles (that's what the girls call pony tail holders). I can't ever find these, I'm beginning to think they eat them!!!

The weather is cooler now so we wash hair only 3 days a week. That might sound awful but think about it...None of the girls can wash their hair very well so they all need help. I run them through the shower and help wash their hair, that one gets out and dries off, I dry their hair while the next one gets into the shower, and so on and so on. Basically, on those 3 days I am bathing 6 and drying everyone's hair because it is so cold now. That takes a good 2 hours in the bathroom, feeling like a drill sargent.

I told Albert that my full time job is babysitting, and I have several part time ones...laundry (at least 20 loads a week), cook (this crew can eat 1/2 of a restaurant size can of fruit in 2 meals) and janitor. Focus is required to not feel like you are drowning.

Please pray for the youngest girl, she obviously has been through some horrific things and she can test our patience like no other. Some days it is hard to like her. I remember days like that with my own kids!!
