Somedays I wonder why I chose motherhood. Like yesterday when Kylee took her poopy
pull-up off and then tried to sit on the potty. And today when Todd hid from me and I couldn't find him. And then when Kylee bit Todd and he bit her back. And my favorite, when Todd decided to wash his socks and dumped all the laundry soap in the washer and started it, and it was not the first time (I hate my washer)! And especially when Kylee tells me no 100 times a day in her sassy high pitched 2 year old voice. I know there will be many more of these types of days when I do want to sell them on EBay or lock them in their rooms, but I don't because...
They are so precious and so sweet at the end of every day. When I see my children this way all the bad stuff seems to melt away. I see how much I do love them. Sometimes I kiss their heads and look at them for a long time. They really are such sweet kids and the good stuff really does far outweigh the bad, but some days I feel like I'm going to lose my mind. Sometimes it's hard for me to find those precious moments during my crazy days as mom. Kylee loves to give me kisses and Todd always tells me he loves me. What more could I want? Perfect children would be great, but I know they need to learn and grow and all those lovely naughty things they do are just a part of growing and learning.

Good I'm glad I'm not the only one who's kids drive me crazy half the time :) I do love how a kiss or hug melts away all the anger.
This, too, shall pass. And one day, when they give you sweet grandchildren, you will be glad you didn't strangle them when they were younger. You better not strangle the sweetest grandchildren in the world. Just bring them to grandma.
