It was all fine and dandy until 4pm. It seems the be the hour everyone goes into overload. Including me!
We got home from work and Payton started his homework. before long, he was complaining of a splinter in his foot. I told him I needed to look at it. That alone sent him over the edge. We spent 25 minutes arguing about how I needed to get it out because it was already looking red and inflamed. It's now 5:30pm and the thing is still in his foot. I'm sick of arguing with him.
And Maxwell is in true Maxwell form. He's been sent to time out twice in the last hour. Once for kicking me repeatedly while I was changing his diaper. The other time for coloring on the dining room table.
I was contemplating not taking them to church tonight just so we could be home and in bed at our normal bedtimes. But now I'm thinking that maybe putting them in someone else's care for an hour and a half while I talk to grownups might be good for all of us...

Church is always a good idea, you can pray that you don't kill the kids. LOL. Love Mom K
I hope the night got better for you. We had one of those days too! ((hugs))
((((HUGS)))) Hope things calmed down and that tomorrow is a better day!
They always seem to straighten out when someone else has them, don't they? Even if they don't, you get a break! I hope the rest of the evening went well.
