Take A Mom's Word For It

Weekend Company... Ack!

So, we are expecting company tomorrow - err, make that today as it's so late :( My hubby's Mom, his Aunt and his Aunt's husband (no, not called "Uncle" - it's complicated) will be here late Friday night...

While I do consider myself "Super Mom" and "Super Wife", there's something about having company for an entire weekend that makes me go into hyper-drive... what will I make for lunch? dinner? are there enough clean towels? is the house clean enough? ... are the children clean enough?! I spent a lot of my night tidying and straightening and still have a few things left on my 'essentials' list - not to be confused with my hubby's 'would like to do even if it's something that can wait till we're less busy' list.

You know, I really do enjoy being the hostess, or maybe it's that I often don't care to be the guest. Either way, I'm looking forward to a little adult conversation and maybe a game of cards... we're a wild bunch!
