It's days like today that I wish all of those other moms, who say "I don't know how you do it", were flies on the wall in my house. These kids are INSANE! And taking me along for the ride, too! Just when I think I have a handle on things, one of them goes and adds another gray hair to my head. I'm too young to have all of this gray hair!
I have to remind myself that my kids are all basically the same age. So whatever stage one of them is going through, the other 3 are all going through it too. Or at least are not far behind. I think this is what stresses me out the most. I get the first one through whatever stage (or think I do) and feel a little accomplished and able to relax and then the next kid goes through it. You would think that having the experience of more than one kid going through the stages of development would help me to better know what I am doing. Not so much. Each kid has their own personality and therefore goes through said stage differently. What works for one doesn't work for the rest, not even one of them. This is exhausting!
