but you said you were busy, so I didn't have the chance to ask. 

Ohh, I'm sorry again for all the noises my nieces and nephew came over. Yesterday was my sister's five year wedding anniversary, so she and her husband were going out on a date at a nearby French restaurant. My husband and I wanted them to enjoy their romantic dinner, so we agreed to watch the kids for them.

Ah, I see. How many nieces and nephews do you have? I have only one nephew who just turned 5 in twin nieces who are only three. Oh nice. And you have two kids. So yesterday you were watching 5 kids in total. Yeah, basically. Oh my God, I love children. But watching 5 kids at the same time must be so hard. Yeah, you're not wrong at all. Last night all of them were playing games and watching cartoons together. I tried to tell them to keep it down, but it was impossible. It's the same for my kids. The kids are still small, so it's understandable why they're naughty. Yeah, I guess.
