Reality Hits---Like an anvel...

Brutus - Has a bunch of hearings and meetings scheduled over the next month....Every one is on the afternoon of a day I work; an afternoon he's supposed to be home with kids. EVERY ONE!

Scientist - Oh, what can I say. If only he was vocal, or clingy, or demanding. Alas, he appears to be at risk of becoming a sociopath. Defiance, disobedience, lying....they have all come out in the past couple of days.

Pretty Princess - "Mom, I just want to stay HOME today!" "Mom, you just have to be with ME today!" Princess = 1, Laundry/Grocery Shopping/Dishes = 0

Sweet Angel - Spent the night in our bed. It was the only way we could get her to sleep. She crawled over to me, snuggled in (she is a spoon-er!) and slept on my arm all night. This afternoon, I ended up having to put her in the sling to make dinner. She wouldn't let me put her down from 3-8pm. It took 2 hours to get her to bed. I ran outside once this morning to get something out of the car, and she flipped out! Made me cry...a couple of times.....

Feeling down, frustrated, questioning, guilty....

Here's to Thursday!
