Confessions

  It was perfect timing that my dad came in town yesterday.  Because at the current rate, my mommy meltdowns are happening a little more regularly.  It is the days where I am so over the talking back and the whining, and when someone even complains about the smallest little thing it really puts me over the edge.   I end up saying really silly stuff.  Like, "Go ahead and just start pooping and peeing in your diaper every time now."  Yep, apologized for that one today.

 

    Bad days come no matter what your job is.  I am not proud of these days, but they happen.  I am so glad mine involves these sweet little children that can melt my heart with a sincere half-mispronounced apology and a good cuddle.  I also am feeling like my dad's visit couldn't be more timely.

 

  He took them to the park after lunch and so I am sitting here by myself in a quiet house.  Ahhhh.  I do often remind myself that one day I will wish I had to clean up my house after 4 children and make lunch for 4 before the hangry threshold is crossed and so on and so forth.  And more times than not, I live in gratitude at the thought of caring for and being with these 4 healthy little beings that run my world.  But for right now, I am sooooo glad he is here and I am going to enjoy these 45 minutes!
