Our Family in Times Square (above) Let's just say that I was not expecting this trip to be so hard on me. I have been to New York twice before, so I knew somewhat what to expect. But I've never been to New York with four young children and leading a Youth group as well! It was hectic, and stressful, but the children were troopers. It was the hardest on Joanna I think. She's used to getting two naps a day and we were gone almost all day without ONE nap! I have a very strong-willed daughter(wonder where she got that!) who fights sleep. I have to admit that I did use some "sleep aid" a couple of times. You'll see why later... Here is Sam being silly...he did a lot of this...he loved being the center of attention Here we are at the American Museum of Natural History. What an amazing place! Here are some beautiful windows at the museum. Outside the museum We spent this evening in Manhattan without the youth, so we let the kids tromp around in Central park...
