A Letter to my Mom

Mom, I am really losing it over here. Those children, they are out to get me. I know they hold secret meetings in the middle of the night to discuss how they can turn their mother into a crazy basket case. You know those shelves in the stair well? Hailey started climbing them up to the ledge that goes across the stairs. If she fell she would fall about 12 feet or more. Just about gave me a heart attack. I'm glad I caught her before she got there. Then the twins pulled over Hailey's dresser and totally broke it. Possibly beyond repair. Then Hailey threw a big tantrum for no reason and I sent her to her room. I started cleaning up dinner and heard Jackson crying. Brandon and Ian (although Ian denies it) had stuffed him and all their toys/books into that black table with the cupboards and wedged it between the couch and wall so he couldn't get out. I got him out, went up to check on Hailey. She had peed all over herself and the floor because she was mad (she even said that's why she did it) and walked all over the hallway in her pee soaked socks.
I just can't stand it anymore!! What is wrong with these children?!? Please continue to pray for me....

Oh Lisa! I am really feeling for you right now. Hang in there! Know that you are not alone in your struggles. You are doing the most important job....ever! Eat some extra chocolate on those hard days. ;)

Oh man!!! That's so hard!! Wish I had some great advice, but I feel like I'm drowning over here so often as well.
