The days where my 2 year old acts like she's turning 16 and not 3. She has recently decided that naps are not longer for her and by recently I mean like 3 days ago and I'm already going crazy. Nap time was my quiet time during the day, and where i could have the chance to get something done. Like clean the house just so the kids could mess it up as soon as they get up from there nap. I beginning to realize that my house is never going to be clean again and if it is, it's only going to last 5 minutes from the moment they wake up in the morning, which for a few weeks now has been 5:30 a.m. This is the sole reason God invented coffee.
The days where not single hair in this house has been brushed because no one can sit still long enough for me to get the brush through it. Half the time my hair doesn't get brushed until about 2 in the afternoon if I happen to get that chance to run into the bathroom and do it. Speaking of bathrooms I have just recently admitted to my husband that the only reason I spend so long in the bathroom when he gets home from work is because it's the first time all day that I can be in there alone, with the door closed, and nobody yelling mommy, mommy, mommy. (I love being mommy but sometimes I'd like to change my name) Half the time I'm in there I sit on the edge of the tub and let my mind clear and relax a little. I'm thinking about stashing a book in there.
The days where my one year old is getting into everything imaginable and some things I'm pretty shocked about. She usually has help from her sister. I am sure I'm pretty doomed for the future if they are already planning things together. For instance the girls were playing in their room, I had put the gate up in their door so i could try and get a couple things done since we had appointments to get to. But anyways the next thing I know Zada(2) is standing at the gate looking into the bathroom, I was thinking she had to use it since we were potty training. I was very wrong, she lifted Layla(1) over the gate and she was in there playing. There is never a dull moment in this house.
I could go on and on about the crazy, interesting, messy, fun life we live. It may sound like I was complaining a little but the truth is I wouldn't change a thing about the way we live life. I will take all the messy, crazy disgusting, awesome days home with these children that I can get because at the end of the day, even if i haven't even gotten dressed yet, no job could ever pay me enough money because you can't buy love , you live it. Cherish every moment you get to spend with your children, even if they are crabby, drawing on your walls or if their face is full of snot and all they want to do is kiss you because what I've been told is that I'm going to miss it when they are all grown up.
God Bless
