You know it has been one of those days, the days where your son complains about everything,,,,literally everything, and where at this moment while your son sleeps your daughter fights sleep, screaming in her crib, while all you want to do is maybe just maybe get a nap because you slept horribly last night and have a splitting headache.
You know it has been one of those days when you casually glance at yourself as you pass by a mirror and the reflection looking back at you is not you. It is a much older,
worn out exhausted, circles under the eyes woman. Not nearly as good looking as you. A woman who actually did get a shower today but that doesn't matter because this woman needs a break. This woman needs a nap. This woman needs a quiet adult conversation. This woman needs a meal where she isn't feeding anyone other than herself. This woman is a stay at home mother who desperately needs some time off.
You know it has been one of those days when all three people in the home have cried. You know it has been one of those days when all three people sleep at the same time because they are all too exhausted to do anything else.
Yep. It has been one of those days.
Can't wait for tomorrow.

I hear ya!
We've been having so many days like this lately too. June has been such a moody, cranky kid lately. I hope it's just the weather and not the terrible threes coming up. We REALLY need to get her and Hobbes together to play soon, outside of preschool. I honestly think part of the problem is that she is just hanging out with me and Emmy all day and she needs more interactions with kids. Perhaps Hobbes is feeling the same thing.
