I am not winning any awards today. Not for "Mother of the Year" or "Most Patient Mother" or "The Mother Who Yells the Least". I probably won't win them tomorrow either....
I guess I am having a rough week. Things are not flowing. My 15 month old has been clinging to my leg like some sort of baby Marsupial. My middle son has a video game addiction. My oldest daughter - well, let's just say that everything her teacher told me in her conference, can be directly correlated to something my husband and I aren't do correctly (how's that for mom guilt?)
Why do some weeks suck so bad? Pardon my French, but I feel like going to bed and not getting up for the next two days. Make that three....
I just took away an after school "sundae party" from my kids because they were kicking & slapping each other in the car. Picture me driving down the road in my minivan with three screaming kids inside - two kicking each other and one just plain screeching.
I was so excited for sundaes today - I really needed one - my thighs & butt didn't need one, but my brain did......now what am I going to do? Go back on my word? Or let the kids do a little housework to "earn" it back?
Hmmmmm....I think I'll get out the feather duster and the Swiffer and get these kids to work, it's almost dinner time.......

LOL! Did you get your sundae? We were supposed to go ant-hunting yesterday (crazy BIL bought them an ant farm), but do to a similiar situation in our vehicle - it was cancelled. I'm not complaining, though. Hehe. Ants can wait.
