Long day

Daddy told me just this morning that he was on-call at work so he couldn't go to church… again. He hasn't gone in months! He said that he told me a few days ago that he might have to go into work on Sunday, but I don't remember him telling me that. He probably told me while I was sleeping. Ugh. I'm so sick of him making excuses every Sunday morning. 

I decided to go with you (Aidan) only. Even though daddy was on-call I didn't take Kendall with me because that would be too hard for me. If daddy got called in he would have to take Kendall or figure something out. 

I was very annoyed because I think I've come down with another cold. My eyes were bloodshot yesterday and I don't feel like myself. I feel like lately I've been a single mom. Daddy's been going to the casino a lot. I can't complain because he's been coming home with earnings, but it just sucks that he isn't there for you guys. You kept asking me where daddy was and I kept responding that he was at work making money so he can buy you lots of toys. I think daddy felt bad that I was doing the brunt of everything so he let me go shopping yesterday. 

We didn't go to church in a long time so I was afraid you would cry when I dropped you
off at the children's program. Yesterday, you cried a lot when I dropped you off at Korean school.
However, you went in without a hitch. When I picked you up after service you were dressed up as
a firefighter. The bad news? You caught my cold because your nose was runny the whole time you
were at Sunday School. 

After you and I came home from church we just chilled at home because we had to babysit your friend Nate in the evening. Nate's parents were celebrating their birthdays (they have birthdays 4 days apart from each other) and they asked if we can babysit Nate while they ate out.

I thought I would take a few snapshots of Kendall when she wakes up from her nap. She's always
on her belly. She has a tendency to pull down all the crib bumpers so she can see beyond her
crib. What a smart girl!

And these are her chiclets. Aren't they so cute?

She always smiles when she sees me. It makes me all warm and fuzzy inside when she does that.

Although it doesn't look it you and Nate had a lot of fun playing. Here you are watching a movie.
I have tissues plugging both nostrils because your nose was running so much that I had to keep
wiping it. I didn't want the skin under your nose to become dry and red so that's why I have tissues
plugging your nose.

I was really unimpressed with daddy because while we were sitting Nate he scared the crap out of him. You weren't really listening to me while Nate was over. You were banging your toy microphone around everywhere. When daddy told you to stop you hit daddy's face with your microphone. I don't think you meant to do it so hard, but daddy lost it. He yelled at you full force in front of Nate and took you upstairs to spank you. You were crying hysterically and Kendall, hearing you cry, started crying too. I think this spooked Nate out because he started crying and saying, "Where's my mommy? I want to go home!" I felt so bad. I had to hug and console him for 15 minutes. When daddy came down with you I told him not to yell in front of Nate. However, a while later you did something again that made daddy angry- I think you banged your microphone on the glass side table. Daddy yelled at you again and took you upstairs. And guess who freaked out again… Nate! Ugh. I think daddy felt bad so he called to Nate to sit on his lap and Nate wouldn't go to him. When Nate finally did he started crying on daddy's lap. I think he is scared of daddy…
