The Kelly kids are ridiculous and I feel bad for Jack and Katherine. I'm also so glad to be 32 and not have four babies to tote around. The "drag it out as slowly as you can" is such a seven year old thing. Up there with "hide her so your parents cant find her and you can have a sleepover". Except I'm not sure if Miriam would have gone for that? ...At least Ellie has a cousin who is a girl and will play with here... although I'm sure she orders Charlie's boys and her brothers around all the time.
And, I hope they do find an affordable apartment that's large enough for their family. Even if I can't live out my dream of an affordable place of my own, Jack and Katherine can!
Haha well, don't feel too bad for them-- they love their kids, and they wanted a big family. But yeah I am glad I don't have children... I like doing my own thing.
Miriam would not go along with Ellie when it comes to breaking rules, no, but maybe when she's a little older-- the "hide away and we can have a sleepover" thing is definitely something I remember doing / being suggested as a kid!
They will! That was a side theme that just popped up as I wrote, but I think it'll help me tie stuff together.
