Waiting

Can you tell that this was just a little rehearsed? I think the "printed" edition was actually take 5 or 6 (no hyperbole included). Quinn is the one talking really fast because he is so done. Lulu is the echo (trailing behind her brothers) and Rhys is the calm voice in the background providing the narration his mother is looking for. I am the one asking them the same questions for the 5th or 6th time. Thank goodness my children love me!
