Oh, I have two other children

Who have completely forgotten about me in my Finwe-only state lately. They rediscovered me last night as I let them fall asleep in my bed watching American Idol. Phill was playing doctor, so I had to deal with all three of them simultaneously. I am, of course, capable of doing this on a daily basis. Actually, I can do it 24/7 as long as the kids are asleep for at least six of those hours. I'm good. I'm also boasting. It feels liberating.

Amazingly, besides the American Idol show, we didn't watch television to make it through the evening hours. We ate. We colored. We talked. We did a few "Can you do this?" competitions. (I won.) However, I would have been a crazed, hair-pulling, gruff-voiced woman without the computer.

Not for me. For them!
