Ever want to know what will prepare you for motherhood? Try this scenario.
Have your older sister, who is married with five children between the ages of four and ten, take a week long vacation with her husband, volunteering to watch the children the whole time. 
Make sure that during the week you: cook the meals, home-school them every morning, keep the house clean, take them out grocery shopping, and to the theater at least once.
But it is also recommended that: you have known every single one of these children since they were babies, you have been a second mom to them all, they respect you greatly, and they love you a lot!
It was such an awesome week! It was a beautiful opportunity to become closer to my niece and nephews. I got to see some different sides of their personalties, and they got me 24/7 for a week. It was tiring, for sure. But it was so worth it! And always will be!
That brought a smile to my face – I thought you were going to go in a completely different direction. Thanks for the morning smile.
You are most welcome!
Haha! That’s awesome!
From this and your letter, it sounds like you had quite the time! Like you said, what a beautiful opportunity!
