Case of the Mondays!

If motherhood were a job you could quit, I would be on the unemployment line.

I seriously wanted to get into my car and just drive far away from the crying, the slapping, the mess, the everything. I love my girls with all my heart, but it was a bad day. My toddler is starting to potty train this week and so we had a lot of pee accidents today. I did figure out that when she’s only in pants (without undies) it makes a bigger mess but she notices it more and it upsets her. So even though I don’t like the large mess, if she notices more then I may have to suck it up. Since she’s in cloth if she pees in her pants (with undies) it feels like the diaper does and doesn’t bother her. I found her on the couch with wet pants happy as a clam. So I guess tomorrow will be a very messy day but maybe she’ll learn what’s going on.

Worst of all they would not overlap their rest times today. Katrina napped all morning, and then a minute or two after Lillian finally fell asleep Katrina was wide awake and not a happy little lady.

But I got through it. I know there will be awful days and that’s okay. I love my girls and once my husband got home I just felt much more as ease. So here’s hoping that tomorrow goes better! Though I’m a firm believer that God doesn’t give us anything we can’t handle. Wish me luck!
