My Thoughts

Do you have kids? I have four. Three at home and one with his mother out of state. My oldest is a sixteen year old boy who lives out of state with his mother. He is a great kid! I am very proud of him!

My other three are a three year old boy, a five year old boy, and an eleven year old girl. These three are a handful! They are great kids and I am proud of them also, but they fight constantly! It doesn’t matter what we are doing, they are going to fight! The boys will fight just for the fun of it, but when my daughter gets involved, it all goes south! They constantly fuss about something! It’s enough to drive my wife and I crazy!

It’s been cold and wet here, so they have been stuck in the house together for weeks. I think they have cabin fever! We are anxious for some good weather that we can send them outside to play in. That always gives everyone some relief! We have plenty of things for them to do inside, but no matter what we get them doing, there is always a problem. One of them will want what the other has, or someone will get mad about one of them being in her room! I know it’s normal and it’s all part of having children, but it takes it’s toll!

I wouldn’t trade it for anything! I would be lost without all of the fighting and fussing!
