eli's mom, debbie, and i co-babysat the twins and the triplets last night. i hope we get to do it again next year - and many years after that - because it was the perfect way to spend that one night of the year that nobody is quite sure how to spend.
for those of you who don't know debbie, let me say this: picture einstein morphed into kathy griffin morphed into the dali lama morphed into mother teresa morphed into roseanne morphed into mother-of-the-year . that's more or less debbie.
i'm not sure which of those personas she was last night - definitely not einstein - when the babies started crying and i suggested that we feed them.
"do they eat?" she asked. perfectly seriously.
after we picked our hysterically cracking up selves up off the floor, we fed them.
(those poor babies........thank God they hadn't a clue.)
