Kids are so amazing. They can be a huge pain, but at the end of the day they are a ball of joy filled with love. In the mornings there are times I wished I had as much energy as they did. They will be talking non-stop and running circles around me at 6 o’clock in the morning. That early in the morning I am still trying to figure out how to get coffee in my cup. Once I have my coffee I get a little bit of energy but nothing compared to children. At this time the children are now bouncing off walls, screaming, and fighting with each other. Time for a second cup of coffee. Now, it is lunch time. They are hungry and as they grow older they eat and eat and eat! By this time of the day I am ready to take a nap. However, they just got more energy from their food. So, here we go again it starts all over just like 6 in the morning. It can be rough at times but I would not change anything. I enjoy having my kids with me everyday. Especially at their ages they are so adorable with their sayings and actions.
Children are definitely a challenge but a fun one at that. I used to think when my kids were younger that those were the hard years, but just wait, one day you will wake up and find 2 teenagers living in your house and they are a unique breed unto themselves. Just try to remember how you were at that age and it helps! Oh yeah, and all teenagers think their parents don't know anything, just like we did as teenagers.
ReplyDeleteI have often wondered why we were designed to lose energy right when we need it the most. ~Ms. A.
