The blessing that over time, they will each take turns being the least and most loving, the least and most offensive. In the end it makes for some good stories for you grandchildren. So, wipe that tiny tear from your eye my beloved Sarah:)

I think it’s very normal.

Honey, right at this very moment I am not liking any of them very much. They are so loud and wound up tonight.

I don’t think it’s wrong. I feel the same way. Some days more than others. And I’m sure the kids do the same thing (having a favorite parent on certain occasions versus others). No worries! I think you should get mother of the year for admitting it!

SO not alone there lady. My 3.5 year old son has this noise he makes when he’s flying a plane or driving a car, and it is SO GRATING. After listening to it for hours, I just want to cover his mouth and tell him to shut up! You can’t live with ANYONE and like them all the time. (Hugs)

Nope, not wrong at all. Every parent does it.

Sigh…

If only my daughter would catch on to the fact that if she ignores me for an hour I will seek her out to play puppets. She’s still fixated on asking every 30 seconds.

The ablation isn’t bad. I had a lot of pain, but that was mostly due to all of the other stuff they did at the same time. At least, that is what they told me. I hope you are in the happy 30 % that it works perfectly for. I, unfortunately, was not. I am in the 30% that it has had no effect. In fact, since mid-Sept. when I had the procedure I have had six horrible periods. I am headed back to the doctor this Friday to see what we do next. Grrrr….

Good news, I will be in Lawrence on Friday for my appointment. Can I help with the kids or anything? Just let me know!

I sucked my thumb until I was twelve. I wanted pierced ears like all my friends, and suddenly my parents arrived at “that one thing” that worked as leverage to make me quit sucking my thumb. But the braces only lasted 18 months, not the years and years I had been threatened with.

I would definitely have asked for a different nurse.
