One-Upmanship

 The Friday that our children all finally moved in was September 30th.  We picked up our son, "Lego Man", first and (after getting lost a few times on the way back) dropped his things off at our house and then hurried to the girls' foster home to pick them up.  At that point we still weren't 100% sure that the kids wouldn't have to go back to their foster homes.  We thought we had approval from their attorney, though.

We took them to the park to play and all the kids decided to play "Look at me, Mom!"  That's the game where all nine of them take turns doing ever more hair raising stunts in an effort to steal my attention away from the other kids.  Part of that is due to the fact that I'm the one holding the camera.  No crazy stunt is official until it can
be immortalized on film.  And, of course, if your sister or brother does it... you have to prove that you can do it better.
