A friend and I were having a conversation; she was in the midst of dealing with her 20 month old son’s tantrum, “girl, I don’t know how you do it with two toddlers… you always seem to have it altogether.”
Yes, my friend, SEEM.
I do not, in fact, have it altogether. Most days are just the opposite. A mess.
Today, I do not have a voice. Probably because I spent yesterday screaming at a Walgreen's photo clerk along with my rowdy children; getting absolutely no where with any of them, followed by 12am and 2:30am screaming battles with Addison over bedtime.
No voice. How am I supposed to yell at them today?
The trick: I do not let people see my chaos so it seems as though I have everything under control.
Lets be honest, I am out numbered, defeated and outright exhausted.

I hear yah! I usually keep it together as much as I can and try not to get too stressed out. Yesterday my son broke his arm for the 2nd time in 4 months. I told him not to do something and of course he did it, hence falling and breaking it. Definitely not a time I hid my feelings. Plenty of moms were staring at me. We are only human, right? I am actually going to write in my blog about this. Maybe it's something in the air. Stopping by from Mommy Masters. Thanks for letting me and other moms know we are not alone!
