Work has been quite busy lately and some major changes have occurred in my life. For that reason I have been a terrible blogger as of late. I apologize. Especially to my few loyal readers. With that...
My children have been fighting like mad lately. It has taken everything in my power not to bang their heads together. Doesn't matter where we are, what we are doing, or even if one of them is asleep, they just can't seem to quit screaming at each other.
I am sure Spring Break doesn't exactly help the situation either. Now they get to spend every blissful moment together, morning noon and night. I am ready to scream myself.
I took them to the store for a "quick trip" the other day. Just walking down the isle while I picked up a few things was too hard for them. "She is stepping on me," whined one. While the other complained that he was looking at her wrong. I actually made them stop and hug each other for 60 seconds right in front of the cold cuts and cheese. It worked, for about 3 minutes before they started in on it again.
I have come to the conclusion that the only way I can bring any sort of harmony into my home, is to be less of a sinner. Today, after going to the park to run off some steam, they get back into the car and start complaining about that one never helps the other out. I, and I can't believe I am about to confess this, got out a church CD and put it on. Hymns filled the car, and for the first time in 5 days, there was peace.
It brought back memories of my mom singing "Love At Home," whenever we were fighting. Can't believe I went there.
