I am tired of reprimanding my kids. i miss them. i miss me. but this is part of life... "i can't go over it, can't go under it, can't go around it, have to go through it." (from We're Going on a Bear Hunt)
denise i know that somedays are trying, but all i can say is they grow-up fast so enjoy all of being a mom sooner then you think they will be parents themselves and rthen you get the JOY of being grandma,you also home school your babies, so just know that takes a very special mommy to do that, hang in there kido better days to come , love aunt viv
The days of laughing and playing with you will last in their minds. They will remember the crazy times, fun trips, cool life school days and great snuggle times. Shake days like this one off with the dust. No biggy!
You aren't alone. I so completely feel you on this one. My almost 6 year old was just being super sassy this morning and my husband said "Every day? It's like this EVERY day?" I said no. Some days. Which is why momma said there'd be days like this. Lots of them. :)
I know that feeling - some days more than others. It is hard. There are those days but hopefully the good, silly, days outweigh the others. Kids are resilient, they will forgive, and they will remember the good times.

Jesus knows me this I love.
Praise is who I am, praise is what I do.
I love words: written, spoken, sung, lived.
I have a love/hate relationship with homeschooling.
I value time spent with a good friend.
I go nowhere without my lipstick!
"Even in childhood was implanted within me a trace of that mysterious unity from which I was derived" St. Augustine
Everybody has to change or they expire. Everybody has to leave, leave their home and come back so they can love it again for all new reasons. I want to keep my soul fertile for the changes, so things keep getting born in me, so things keep dying when it is time for things to die. I want to keep walking away from the person I was a moment ago. Only a good story has a character different at the end than it was in the beginning. Through Painted Deserts Donald Miller "Our whole life was only given to us to advance us by great strides toward our heavenly country." Lancelot Andrews In my life, God is always changing the way I think of Him. I am not saying GodHimself is changing, or thatmy theology is open and I blur the lines on truth;I am only saying I think I know who He is, then I figure outI don't know very much at all. Searching For God Knows What Donald Miller
A proud man is always looking down on things and people: and of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you. Mere Christianity C.S. Lewis
I am soooo with you:(.
