My twins are at camp.

The house is so quiet. It is amazing, how 2 children out of 8 people can make the house seem empty. Teenagers light up the scenery around them. They are always questioning the procedures and coming up with better ways to do the things that we do. We don't even think about what we are doing. Enoch said, Sunday night, the reason we are always late for church is because we don't have a disciplined bedtime. If we got in the bed on time we would make it to service on time. Well lahdeedahhh! I say. If I say go to bed, in the summertime, they give me whatfor. But the teenage mind is able to reason and come up with new procedures to make the home more functional all of the time. We miss them both. We will see them Friday or Saturday.
Evvy was crying at her sibling problem, before take off. They always bother me. Why do I have to be the youngest girl? Tears and conflict between the women of the house, I am familiar with. All I can say to her is that everything that those big girls think that they are getting away with, they will get returned to them. I know this all too well! We smiled alot by the time she left. She is going to have a great time at camp, no big sisters are there, to give her grief about her spoiled self. I love the family dynamic. What causes enemies one minute is what they are kissing eachother about the next. Now Evv is taller than the other girls so she is really in for it.:)
