Living with 5 boys , a husband , 4 dogs , 4 horses, and approx 7 cats. I have realized that you must live moment to moment and you never know what to expect.
For example being suddenly awaken by a scared dog at 4:45 a.m. (due to a thunderstorm) then realizing that I have all 4 horses outside. So out of bed , wake my oldest son, throw some clothes on and hurry to the barn. As we are chasing them in the pouring rain (while sliding in the mud) wishing we had this on video! Now that he is 17 I need to take every chance I get to spend time with him . So be ready at a moments notice with dry clothes and cookies , you never know when you will get the chance to talk.
