Not because your plight is so crazy but it is strangely similar to my plight...homeschooling my oldest three (one 5th grader and two 1st graders) along with a three year old that I am trying to potty train this week and a sixteen month old that is coming into "fit" season. You know the season where you scream and cry when you don't get what you want...I figure if she stops having fits, I may stop mine. We are both a bit stubborn though so I don't see that stopping anytime soon.<BR/>Anyway, I hear your pain, I share your pain...Sandra in Phxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11140211614382984035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-86421367815262034452008-09-02T16:15:00.000-05:002008-09-02T16:15:00.000-05:00So I know Rechelle is your sister, but the way you...So I know Rechelle is your sister, but the way you talk about your kids, I swear you and I must be sisters. You always wanted another sister didn't you? One with brown hair and major OCD. Oh, whew, good. I was starting to worry there for a minute. Maybe it will make you feel better to know that whilst still trying to fine tune the potty training of my son he proceeded to go POOP in the backyard. We aren't in the country. There is construction going on behind our house. I could just die of mortification. The best was when I had to use the dog's pooper scooper to pick it up. Just thought I would try and brighten your day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-30827074492485936332008-09-02T11:41:00.000-05:002008-09-02T11:41:00.000-05:00crock-of-crap shoes. hehe Oh, that's a good one.crock-of-crap shoes. hehe Oh, that's a good one.Rheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11027061380778030388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-10828640534839574492008-09-02T11:31:00.000-05:002008-09-02T11:31:00.000-05:00By the power invested in me by .. well, myself ......By the power invested in me by .. well, myself ...
