Midnight

It's midnight and I am actually really tired but I am forcing myself to stay awake and enjoy the time I have without crying, fighting children.  This is my me time and needless to say I really need it. It's true even ask my mom. She came over today and helped me make jam, she kept asking what was wrong with the kids? "NOTHING-they act like this everyday!!" Was my response. She then told me how she has never had any kids act like mine do. (She was mostly talking about Riann) She must have felt pretty bad for me because she did my dishes and swept my floor while she was here also.  She is a sweet lady.  So anyway this is why I sit up forcing myself to stay awake because before you know it 7:30 comes around and I Hear "MOM!!" right off the bat.  Then its on to the fighting and crying til 8:30 when it's bed time. (which lately they have been pushing it back to 9:30) I'm really looking forward to this!  I love my children, I love my children, I love my children. I need to keep reminding myself of that.  haha
