Yes…but there “could be” a new one soon

Mike, as you can imagine, has been picking up the slack around here.
While TC was in the hospital all that time, there was a “lack of attention” I guess you could call it, from me regarding the home front!
Couple this with trying to get my new Real Estate business off the ground and I am basically a guest in my own home of late.
Mikey has been my savior, I readily admit that.

But now let’s not get all crazy and bleary-eyed over this!

I mean, yes he travels extensively for work,
And yes, he has managed the kid’s schedules around his own.
Yes, he did go to both kid's “Back to School” nights AND “Meet the Teacher” nights.
And yes, I am of the opinion it is purely coincidence that I was again unavailable for teachers conferences last week, but REALLY…
Do I deserve THIS?

“Mr. Baker, Is there a Mrs. Baker?” asked one of Jordan’s teachers!!!

I will never shut him up about that as long as we both shall live!
I have heard so many different versions of his answer by now, I’m starting to believe him.

“Oh, she’s back in Rehab again…we’re really hoping she sticks to it this time.”
“It’s ‘Girls Night Out’ again tonight; she should be up by noon tomorrow if you need her.”
“She’s at the Credit Counselor…she has a big shopping problem.”

Four years I’ve been home with these 2 kids.
Hauling them, healing them, hugging them and hollering at them.
Is there a Mrs. Baker???

Yeah…and she rocks!
Just like Mr. Baker.

(I love you Mikey, and no… this blog is not about you. Really.)
