Some Days

Do you ever have days where you just feel like you can't get it right? Parenting is HARD work.  These last few weeks have been challenging in our home.  Challenging for me.  There are a lot of if onlies...if only I felt better, if only I had more energy, if only it weren't raining, if only I didn't say no, stop, please pick it up, don't hit your brother/sister, get back in your bed, no, stop, all a million times a day.
It is a bit overwhelming.  My goal is to focus more on the joy. the laughter. the kisses. the hugs. the snuggles. story time. their inquisitiveness. playing baseball. playing soccer. potato bugs. wrestling.  All the good stuff.  Soak it up.
