I just got over a long weekend of watching my little brother and sister while my parents are in Japan, and I am in massive awe of the amount of patience my parents must have. Even worse, Jordan and Katelyn are at an age where they don't require much maintenance (15 & 10, respectively). Nonetheless, getting up to go to swim meets and making sure that they were happy, fed, and occupied all weekend sucked all remaining life out of me.

I guess it was fitting for Father's Day weekend. Made me respect my dad a whole lot.
