I have 5 kids (13, 6, 4, 3, and 1). The 3 and 4 year old started school this Monday (they go Monday, Wednesday and Friday). Then the 13 and 6 year old started school Thursday. Today was goin to be my first day with everyone out BUT......
My brother-in-law's mother had a stroke 3 months ago. His mother lives 2 hours away. My sister and he husband went to visit her right and left his kids (7, 7, 5, 3, 14 months) with me for a week. Everything was going well, but now the doctors are worried. My sister and her husband are going down there. The kids can't miss school (it JUST started). They are now staying with me.
So, she brought over all their things, except she was too in a rush to pack outfits. My sister brought me the key and asked me to go over and bring some outfits. I went to their house, and the poor kids clothes are horrible! Everything is stained or has holes in it! I am amazed that my sister has that. And there are no winter/fall clothes anywhere to be found! I am shocked. I'd prefer not to have the kids looking like slobs! Should I buy some clothes for them? Everything summer is on clearance anyway, so I could buy a couple summer outfits for them? What do you think? Is that rude?
