I find it hilarious that the last post I was talking about how quiet my house was, and now at the moment my house is the complete opposite! All four kids are home (which I love!) but they are also ALL fighting and yelling, making the house very loud and chaotic!
I wish I knew how to teach my kids that siblings should be your best friends. Brothers and Sisters will always be there, (or at least should be) and some friends will come and go. Yet they treat their friends SO much better than they treat each other. I am constantly listening to them, their attitudes and tone of voice etc... and telling and asking them over and over again if they would do or say those things to their friends. Their answers are always, "of course not!" Then I frequently ask, "Would you like it if Mom and Dad fought and yelled and hit each other?" Of course their answer is "Uhhh, NO!!" Uggghhhh!!! Then why do they treat each other that way!!!!
Well, it has quieted down upstairs... I guess the war up there must have come to an end for the moment anyway. =) I guess I will go see if there are any casualties!!!!
I hope everyone enjoys their Martin Luther King day. I am hoping to quickly get our chores done around here, head to work for a bit and then find some time to play with the kids for a bit. Bye for now!
