I've been back to work part time since the beginning of November and unfortunately my time is running out for working just part time:(. After Spring Break I have to return full time. We are planning for Jacob to take some time off then to help my mom during the day. It seems every week we are scrambling to find enough volunteers to help out while we are both gone.
Even though we are only gone during the 1:00 feeding it is still a LOT of work to entertain 5 babies all afternoon. The volunteers we have are absolutely AMAZING--they help us out whenever they can but they each have their own lives outside of our craziness so their time is limited with us. I'm hoping to find a few more new volunteers to fill in here and there during the afternoons so that my mom isn't trying to handle all of them at once---although she has gotten pretty good at managing it. I know its a lot of stress on her and I'd like to eliminate that if at all possible. She has been our saving grace this year--she has given up so much of her own time and time with my dad and the rest of our family back home in order to help us out. I better be thinking of a good Mother's Day present right?!!??

My daughter is a 6th grader at vis and I have been following your story since last summer.I love seeing pics of the babies. Im also the person running the rummage sale for vis this week-end. Please let me know what I need to do to help your family out. Thanks Donna Miller

I wish I could help Le. I know how tiring it was when Lelia was little, and she was just one baby! Mom and Dad and my mom-in-law were a saving grace! They still are in fact. When are you out for the school year? If we get out earlier maybe I can come for those last couple days or weeks?

That little Giovanni is such a little charmer! What cute pictures of all of them! I'll try to get a few more weeks in at your house after we get back. Have been subbing almost nonstop this month!
