Tea Parites

Our normal morning schedule goes something like this, wake up, get the kids up, run around like crazy trying to get them dressed and fed and out the door by 8:15.  It doesn't seem to matter what time we get up, it is always the same.  I guess when we get up earlier I feel like I have so much extra time that I do dumb things like look at pinterest before kick starting everyone into action.  Dumb.  So this morning was no different, Kyle and I woke up sandwiched between two kids.  Kenz had a nightmare and Madi missed Kenz...  how does this happen?  Anyway, normally the girls and I go drop Kenz off at school and then we go for a walk before returning home to do whatever needs done before we go back out to pick her up.  This morning I decided that we were going to skip our walk because I had extra stuff to do in preparation for leaving for Hong Kong tomorrow morning.  Unfortunately it is now 3:20 pm and I still haven't done anything, but back to the main point of this post.  So we came home right after dropping Kenz off for her morning of learning, haha!  I was in the middle of looking busy so that the other two kids would leave me alone when Kaylie started yelling about water.  In a land where the average height is real short and the kitchen counters about 18 inches shorter than American counters the trouble a toddler can get into in the kitchen is real and often problematic.  Also, living in a land where the water can be fatal to any living thing a mother has to be sure about what water is in question.  So I headed for the kitchen, only to find this:
 The tiny tot decided to have a tea party with her barbie tea cups.  Reasonable I guess when you are that size.  She decided to get her own water which made a lake but she had shoes on so no big deal...  a little extra water certainly did not stop her from enjoying a little "tea" out of her tiny tea cup. 
Gan bei
