Seriously, let's form a commune!!

Last Thursday I was babysitting for a friend's daughter when another friend texted to invite Ezra and I to the indoor playground at the mall.  I said we couldn't go, and so she instead came over with her 2 kids...and another friend then came over with her son.  By 9am, it was a total party at our house.  I LOVED it! 

I kept thinking, "if we lived on a commune...life could be like this every day!"

My friend Samantha was able to leave to run an errand while her son stayed to play.

Then Jen made a quick run to Target.

The Infectious Disease Specialist called while everyone was over to schedule my appointment for that afternoon, so Jen graciously offered to put her kids down for a nap at our house so she could babysit Ezra while I went to my appointment. 

It was just like I imagine commune living to be.  Lots of companionship for the mamas, and the kiddos loving all the playmates around.

Maybe you should specify what kind of commune. Otherwise you may be starting some sister-wives/polygamy rumors. ;)

But - I agree, days are so much better when other people are around, makes us both happier!
