Sunday September 8

Today has been one of those days when you question how you are doing as a mom.

Sundays are hard when Brent is at work.

It wasn't a bad day.....but sacrament meeting was not good.

Elsie pulled Cassi's hair and threw scriptures at her.

Porter was loud and disruptive and tried to kick and push Elsie.

Madi was good.....

I kept getting dirty looks from Cass when I would ask her to stop bugging the kids.

You know....one of those days.

We got home and I put Porter to bed, then I had to leave for a presidency meeting.

Things went good while I was gone.

Madi was very helpful.

I came home and took Cassi to choir practice.

Then Madi got hard.

She is good until I ask her to do something she doesn't want to do, then she turns on me.

I know it's normal...I just hate it.

I promised Elsie brownies if she went to class, so that's what we made.

After dinner tonight, we took a plate of brownies to Bubbles and visited with her for a bit.

After baths, it was bedtime.

I wish I could have more individual time with the kids.

I wonder if that would make a difference.

I don't know.

I just love my little family so much and I want these kids to have the best Mom they could have and sometimes I just feel like I am failing them......

Maybe I just need sleep.

I can't forget to mention that Madi was set apart as the Beehive first counselor today.

She is very excited:)
