You think that you were busy. My mom had 5 girls in 6 1/2 years. We were teens all at the same time. I am the middle and there is the biggest gaps on either side of me. The family joke. Or one of them is that I am the neglected middle child. My mom told me if I had to ask there wasnt a lot of chance that I was neglected.
I havent been riding in so many years. I grew up with ponies and it is something that I regret sort if not doing with the kids. Of course they are not short activities. They are in a play. One made the school volleyball team. Biathlon cadets and band for all three. And it us sea cadets so they all sail as well. The oldest spent at least four weekends this fall as a volunteer sail instructor. Of course they are 13, 14 ( almost 15) and 16. Wow how time flies.
