If you would like to link to us....

If you would like to link to us go right ahead, I do ask though that if you know us in real life that you use my kids blog names if you refer to them. I don't use them in my blog or the title for safety purposes. Thanks so much!

We all need a break sometimes.

So Wednesday was a nightmare... No kidding Big G and Missy My were fighting NONSTOP all freakin day! I would attempt to get something done and no kidding 5 seconds after I got to the top of the stairs Missy would start screaming bloody murder and G would start yelling at her to stop.... which only proved to make the issue worse. On top of this Li wouldn't let me put him down for more than 2 min without squaking about it. SIGH.

Yesterday was MUCH better. I think the fact that I had to go visiting teaching and left them with Gma S then after that had to go do Activity Days and arranged for them to go next door for a little while (many thanks Tandee!!) really helped. They seamed like different children last night... they played so well together and gave mom a few minutes to read a book in peace! Amazing! I usually have to wait till after they go to bed to really read and get anything out of it. I need to remember on those days when they are being demons that sometimes it's not just ME that needs a break!

I just have to remind myself on those hard days that even though I may not like my children at times... or some days even. I really do love them and enjoy them more often than not. Things like this make it all worth it!


G dressing up Missy and her letting him. WITHOUT fighting about it! And of course Li smiling...makes the frazzled nerves and diaper changing worth it when they get along and are happy!

Oh, those bad days. I've decided it's ok to have a bad day and hide out in my room, cry, whatever, as long as it isn't everyday. I'm glad the next day was better for you.
