    good piece of writing there, E. I specially love the part about sharp elbows and knees. So true, when you're already pissed it's like they try to hurt you with their bodies.
    Hope tomorrow is better. :)
    Though that end part sounded pretty good.

    I can totally relate to that. I feel like a freaking jungle gym most of the time. Pullin' and tuggin'. And I did read "Fox and Sox" as fast as humanly possible last night. I too have days like that.

    I was begging and pleading with Josho to clean his room the other day. I mean, it went on for hours...finally I lost it and yelled, "you're almost finished, just get it done!!" To which he replied "Does that mean you're almost happy?" sigh. I felt SO bad.

    Yep. Have 'em too. But they make us pull closer and nuture on the days we're NOT like that. And, thankfully, we have more days we're NOT like that.

  17. Looking forward to those days...not the bad parts, but the "Love you Mom" parts...at the same time, taking in all the peace and quiet in our house, knowing full well it will never be the same.

    Hoping for better days for you.

    Hang in there, E! You're not alone ... we have many days like that in our house. Nothing like hearing your little one say, "Mommy, I don't want to see your mad face any more". Oh, the guilt.

    That seriously,
    has to be one of the best things I've ever read.
    Part of me is sad that I wasn't the one to write it.
    But the other part of me is just happy that it is out there for all to see.

    Thank you.

    day.
    while somehow I manage to lose it just in the few short hours between work and bed.

    I love this.
    So true.
