Its been a rough day.. as you can see from the two other posts... I am sitting here enjoying a pity party eating my m&m Mcflurry... Wondering if my children will ever just want to help me out with things... Wondering if they will ever get to a point where they see me working and ask what they can do to help.. Wondering if they will ever just do the things I ask them to the first time and wondering if they will ever stop picking on each other??? Why I get down on myself when my kids are being kids I'll never know... So, while I am here in my time out I read Elder Ballards talk on mothers- It is a great talk if you haven't got a chance to read it do so!! http://lds.org/conference/talk/display/0,5232,23-1-851-37,00.html
feeling better as I indulge in my self pity and chocolate!!! realizing that in time with love and example they can become the boys I know they are!! That they are sweet spirits that my Heavenly Father gave to Joseph and I to raise with an understanding of where they came from and what they are working for in this life time.. I Do Love the Little turds...

Sorry you had a rough day. Sometimes I wonder whether those come to force us to read the talk (I loved it too!) I think you are a great mom and liked reading all the things you learned. Thanks for sharing and hope today is better!
Thanks for that, Windy. How true it is. Luckily for us, those sweet smiles and waves while dropping them off at school, the hugs while tucking them into bed, and the climbing up onto a lap to "snuggle" make it all worth it.
I hear ya girl! Hang in there... or throw a couple of things, it always makes me feel better (okay not really, but I still do every now and then).
