Good Days Bad Days

Eva isn’t the easiest child to parent. She has two modes- on (which is full throttle) and off (which is sleeping). She is a very active kid- always running, jumping, throwing stuff, and she’s really loud. Her fits are big and involve lots of kicking and yelling. Spirited would be a good word to describe her. The bonus of this of course is that she sleeps like a rock.

Her attitude is huge. I honestly never thought I would see such eye rolling and drama from a little three year old but it’s there. Every day.

Usually I can handle it. But we have had a hard couple of days- everyone is still tired from the last beach trip. Especially Cole. He stayed up late almost every night and has been falling apart at the drop of a hat. See he is a bit of a hot head as well.

So having two kids that were flipping yesterday just got on my last nerve. I tried to take them to the pool but Eva pitched a huge kicking and screaming fit and I threw in the towel. It was just one of those days.

Today we are going to stay closer to home. I need to go through closets and do laundry and get things put away. Crossing my fingers that it’s going to be a better day.
