I joke with Scott that when we are on vacation he has A.D.D. (Activity During the Day), we always have to be doing something. The joke was made clear to me today that we all have it. Every Saturday morning when the kids wake up around 6:30am, they come in and ask, "What fun are we doing today?". Are you kidding me, we need to do something fun every Saturday. So I always answer with, "Saturday is a special day, it's the day we get ready for Sunday. We do our...." They always stop me and say, "Mom stop singing, we are tired of doing chores." I say, "me too, but somebody has to do them".
Well today, we decided to forego the chores and take the kids sledding up at Bogus Basin. So we dug out the snow clothes, packed snacks and headed up to the mountains. It was a great day! Probably not for Emmett. Here is were you can judge me for being a bad mom (cause I probably am). the poor kid has an ear and sinus infection, but we took him up to the snow anyway. He wasn't able to go down the mountain, so he and I hung out in the "warm house", then Scott and Emmett hung out while I rode down the mountain with the kids. It was great fun.

Sometimes the needs of many outnumber the needs of one. Emmett survived and the rest of your family got well-deserved R&R. I don't think you're a bad mom. At all. Looks like you had lots of fun!
