Being a mom can be HARD

Do you ever feel like your kid is doing everything possible to make you snap? I felt like that today. Every time I was in a different room that Aaron, he would do something that he knows he shouldn't do...spill his drink on the floor, furniture, TV; throw his toys, the Christmas decorations (that we just put out this morning), his food, the mouse to my computer; put electronic wires or connections in his mouth...just to name a few. I'm not exaggerating about it being every time and all day long either.

I have to say that I'm proud of the way I handled it all, especially considering that I have been struggling with yelling at him. I got close to losing it this evening, but instead we took a drive and listened to Christmas music.

I love this little boy with everything in me, but on days like today I could really use a break from being around him...even if it's just for a couple of hours. Know what I mean?
