We Survived

Thanks for listening to me vent for a minute. We made it. Actually after I was able to write it down and laugh a little bit things became better. It is funny how your outlook changes everything. I do have to give a shout out to these two books: The Dangerous Book for Boys, and The Daring Book for Girls. ( Thanks Brad for finding and suggesting them). They saved my day. These books are amazing. They give you all the tricks to do those things that every kid wants to do. ( You can buy them at Costco right now)


For me: step by step on how to make a paper hat. I quickly made three paper pirate hats and a whole new game of playing pirates began. Granted I had a whole pile of "treasure" stacked in front of my front door but at least they were playing together with out crying, screaming, or hitting. All four of us survived, my laundry got done (little miracles), I have tons of stuff to give to DI (pulling all of the toys out in the front room does make it easy to clean through), and they are still friends. Thanks for your words of encouragement, and for quick answers to prayers.
