My life is good...

Ed was at camp for week. It's H.A.R.D to be a single parent. I don't know how people do it, I've done longer but for some reason, this week was not a good mom week.

I tried so hard to be fun, nice, patient, loving. It wasn't working. I'm ashamed to admit that I lost it one day to the point I yelled so loud/much I cried mid scold. I locked myself in the bathroom and tried to regroup. Hearing my kids just laugh that I was crying was a knife in the wound.

I still wasn't nice that night but went to bed praying I could change my attitude, that I could know how to discipline my kids without losing it or asking ridiculous things of a 2 and 3 year old to obey.

You know what? They were great for me (for the better part) of 2 days. Just picture angels singing in my head. And then to make matters even better, Ed came home. And they were still good!

This weekend I have done lots of watching of my kids and enjoying them playing with one another. I think I have cone out of my frustrated rut and I'm 100% happy with my life. (Not that I hated it before, just been overwhelmed with everything lately).

My kids bring me so much joy and I'm so glad they are mine. I love Ed more than anything and am glad he's my partner in crime. When he comes home from long times away, I still get butterflies seeing him like I did when we were dating. I'm glad after five years in still excited to be around him!

Okay, I'm done with my rant. Here are a few picture favorites of this weekend...Instagram style
