For those of you that don’t know, Cory travels occasionally for work. This week is one of those weeks. He left Sunday afternoon and will be home later tonight. Life with three kids is always interesting when dad’s not in town. I guess I need to say that Cory is a very involved dad so the kids really miss him when he is gone.
Some weeks things are good until about the half way point then it starts to fall apart. During those weeks, I am usually losing my mind by that point as well. This week really has been great (well other than the fact that I am still behind on laundry but I guess that will never end). The kids have been a little hyper but nothing to terribly crazy.
Well, this afternoon the whining started and it didn’t stop. All three of them had one thing or another to whine about. Hayden didn’t want to pick up his toys. Hayley was mad because we couldn’t find the toy she wanted to take to the bathtub. Alex was mad because he wanted to go outside and also because he wanted to take a bath and because he didn’t want to get out of the bath and well….I guess I could go on and on!
Thankfully, baths are done and everyone is in bed now so I can relax (& fold clothes) and wait for Cory to get home! I really am thankful that this week went so well. One night of whining is much better than two days! And honestly, everyone went to bed well, so that helps a bunch too!
