Yes, I'll drive!

So we left for Utah Friday afternoon. We did not leave until after 3 pm and got to Cedar City (to stay at GG's house) at 1 am. I started driving because Jason was going to have to drive in the late night. Jason normally is the passenger when the boys are sleeping. After about an hour of passing snacks, fixing the dvd, finding lost toys and sippies, Jason informed me that he "did not like this seat". I was thoroughly enjoying watching Jason try to settle in for a long winters nap only to be roused from his almost slumber by the boys yelling and expressing a new demand. Or Max pelting him with his grapes that had imperfections. As all mothers know, it is always enjoyable to watch your spouse get a full dose of "mothering". And I drove as far as I could until there was hope of the boys settling into the drive:)

That's really funny. It always makes Grant appreciate me more when he has to watch the kids, while trying to get other things done also. :-)

Nice! Joelle always says that mother's are the most dangerous drivers because of the multi-tasking they perform. You keep on driving and let Jason cater to those adorable boys.

This is definitely the funniest blog! I can so appreciate this story. I love it when my husband tries to balance more than two things at once. It's always entertaining. The flying grapes just made me giggle!
