Enough Already

I love them dearly, I do. But, the talking is driving me mad. I swear, they never shut their mouths, never. Sometimes I feel like my head might spin right off. Is it just me? I thought so until last night. We were driving back from Yukon (for my brothers birthday) and their mouths were continuing the marathon, Chris says, "hey we have stuff for Colorado bulldogs (the drink) at home, we should have one!" Hmmm I think it's gonna take more than just one for me! It would have been nice to hang back and have a drink after they went to bed, but for some unknown reason even though they went to bed an hour later than usual and you'd think they'd be wiped out, they were still up TALKING at almost 10. We kept having to go upstairs to shush them. So much for vegging in front of the tv with a drink in hand. So today, was going to be a new day with hopefully less jabbering. Not so much, Anna claimed that her stomach hurt and she had a headache this morning, so I let her stay home. I really do believe that she doesn't feel well, and she has been a bit quieter this morning, for the most part the blabber continues on from both girls. I know I will regret this later, when they are teens, and probably will refuse to talk to me..........but at the moment a little peace and quiet would do.
