I just have one kid - and I get to "escape" to work (yes, I feel guilty thinking of it that way) - and somedays I don't think I can handle it one more minute. And then other days it's perfectly wonderful. You have such beautiful kids and I love reading about all the brilliant things you do for them. You really do inspire me to be a better mom - even with a hair tug or two. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736735434359573078.post-75243942850283026252009-06-02T13:39:51.284-06:002009-06-02T13:39:51.284-06:00Whit, I haven't checked your blog in forever, but ...Whit, I haven't checked your blog in forever, but I loved this post!

We all fail/flail miserably on a daily basis. I brush Isabel's hair really hard too when she makes me mad. But you're doing it, and you're doing better than you think. Take a breath, count to ten, do a shot of DC and plaster the smile and fake it till you make it.<br /><br />Phew - that was a lot of homilies for one sentence, but they're all true. Then call me and we'll vent in secret.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07661333151535289209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736735434359573078.post-33251565398115584922009-05-27T12:24:14.525-06:002009-05-27T12:24:14.525-06:00I have been there with you.

I will tell you for what it is worth that later my children have become my friends so evidently there was no permanent damage. At least not too much. :)Kathleen J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08797876054948832560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736735434359573078.post-62251810618876084332009-05-27T06:40:12.412-06:002009-05-27T06:40:12.412-06:00Whit, I am sure that those not-so-great days and e...Whit, I am sure that those not-so-great days and episodes have already been erased from their little noggins! I totally think you're an awesome mom and just completely human. I'm sure every mother out there feels exactly the way you do. While I don't have kid(s) (plural- yet) talking to me and bugging me...I do have a mini-me I cart around non-stop. I do sometimes wish I could just have a break. Just for like half a day, or a day. But I'm nursing her every four hours (during the day - she sleeps all night) and I simply can't leave her. I hope today is one of the better days. But in the end, you're a loving, honest, kind mom who is doing the best you can - and that's what's important!Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05615149112130152767noreply@blogger.com
