Family Outing

Today I decided we all needed to get out and go for a nice long walk. It was great to get some fresh air and knowing there was a park at the end gave the kids some incentive to keep going.
Lately I haven't felt like mom of the year...my kids are fighting and are constantly in timeout... If I put them down for a nap they don't go to bed and if I don't give them a nap they are major grouches. I hope this stage will pass because I sure miss being world's greatest mom! :)

I hear you! I think they must be crashing from Christmas because my kids are the same way. I mean there is always fighting and crying and time outs but it seems a whole bunch worse right now.

I really wish I had something motivating to say but it just really sucks sometimes..you know?

Fighting is NATURAL! Every family has it to some degree. You just need to relax and have more family fun! Life should not be so stressful that you forget to enjoy your kids...they are only little once...love the time you have. Pretty soon they will be gone and you will have to share them with in-laws!!! Work on the mom of the year status. It's only January...you have 11 more months to get it down!
