We are currently breaking BubTar of HIS lovely habit of tossing himself to the floor anytime we say the word "No." to him. So most of my days are spent telling him "You know you aren't to react that way. Go to your room and cool off." And sitting KayTar on the stairs and saying "Are you done crying yet? You cannot have the [insert random item here]. Okay? No more crying." And repeating it again 30 seconds after she stands back up. And then again. And again.<BR/><BR/>HEAD EXPLODING IN 3...2...1...BOOM!<BR/><BR/>The best part of my day has been the post-naptime walks we've been taking. They are both happy and quiet the entire time we are walking. That is what I am thankful for. :)Kylahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03311014761113076785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2674562610629395012.post-35557255826991265262007-11-16T09:18:00.000-05:002007-11-16T09:18:00.000-05:00I've been starting to feel like something is wrong...I've been starting to feel like something is wrong with my kids!

I would agree that this has been a bit of a challenge somedays. But I can say that I find myself looking for opportunities to write about. Therefore, I find myself being thankful alot more. <BR/>God has/is using this excerise to focus my eyes on all that He has given. <BR/>When your day gets rough, I hope you find comfort in knowing that somewhere your blog is touching someone. Making us smile, making us laugh, and making us feel "not so alone".Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00723871220828518491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2674562610629395012.post-53631880740440462122007-11-15T15:20:00.001-05:002007-11-15T15:20:00.001-05:00oh joy-- i am thankful for you and your truthfulne...oh joy-- i am thankful for you and your truthfulness and lovely heart.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04662448292809451387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2674562610629395012.post-64230771353572413552007-11-15T15:20:00.000-05:002007-11-15T15:20:00.000-05:00We all have bad days.
