TO and LE's school has a sock hop every year. And it's on Friday. Last year P's mom took TO and she had a blast. P's mom told TO she'd take her again this year, but has had to back out because she's dog-sitting for P's sister.
Now I'm stuck with making the decision of either going with all 4 kids, or trying to find a sitter for the younger 2. And I have to admit--I've know about this decision for quite a while now and I've been choosing to put it off. Tonight, I'm going to call one family I know that has 2 teen aged daughters to see if either of them baby-sits. If they don't, or aren't able to, I'm going to call the school tomorrow to make sure it's all right that I bring all of the kids.
Part of not wanting to go is dealing with the kids. Part of not wanting to go is that it is new for us. Maybe I should just suck it up and take them all. I know I don't like putting myself in new situations, but I really need to get over it and just do it. I see a lot of myself in the kids, and that's one trait that I don't want the kids to pick up.
I hate this kind of thing--admitting I have flaws and trying to work around them. Arrrg.
