It's ok to sometimes get mad and tell children off. Imagine a world where children never learned that sometimes adults lose their cool. It wouldn't go very far in preparing them for the real world. Children can't be well behaved all the time, they have moods like us. And fro sounds of it, you are teaching them wonderful values and already it is clear what loving, forgiving natures they have. So forgive yourself. You are a mom, true, but you are human too. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas xoxoJodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17727309623355194213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6546425043426425595.post-26280225180462995172013-12-11T19:40:19.562-08:002013-12-11T19:40:19.562-08:00Been there.

When you NEVE...Oh, I know that frustration SO well. When you NEVER get a break - and your neverending days are something like: dress cook clean pack hurry mess rush (forget something) work work work work rush drive cook clean bathe pick up clean work work collapse.... and then you wake up the next day and the next day to the same thing. It is just so exhausting. Who can be expected to not lose it once in awhile? The past few months I have yelled at Fiona more than in her entire previous life. Of course it is simply about me being overwhelmed. And then my innocent little girl pays for it. Breaks my heart. Hang in there. Try to have as much down time as possible (PBJ and applesauce for dinner is just fine!) and carve out some slower time with your boys. That always helps me feel better. You are not alone!Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090532551103414307noreply@blogger.com
