Chaos! Great word that can be applied to many things. It can be good, or bad, or both. In my case, it is mostly good.  Note I said mostly.

My chaos involves being on vacation at a cabin up on Ski Mtn. in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. It is a big cabin with three floors, four bedrooms, decks, and a nice really big table to sleep under. The table is very important because the cabin's main level floorplan allows you to go from room to room in a big circle around the center stairs that lead up or down a level. It is really big, until you add three extra adults and 4 kids (six and five year old boys and five and 3 year old girls.)

The good chaos is the dropped cookie crumbs and the extra petting. The bad chaos is that I am used to chasing ducks and geese, I am not used to being chased, especially not in a big circle through the house by four kids.  I love my kids, but they really tire me out. Which is why I really like the big table, it is the perfect haven from all the Chaos.
