Yeah, I agree. Also it has really pushed me to do more instead of less so far.

You know, 1 was bad but I think 2 sounds worse day to day. I think I pick one as long as I don’t get murdered.

7 weeks of solo parenting starts today. We had fish sticks and watermelon for dinner just cause we can. My kid has adopted a dead butterfly, the whole walk home he said “mama, thank you for bringing the butterfly home” as I carried that, my kid, the dogs leash and a filled poop bag back home on our walk.

I wanted this too for a short period in High school and phased out of it by the time I graduated. I feel like I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with my life and that was an easy answer.

Describing things happening as missions is super cute though.

So sleep has been an issue over here, but for three days straight my kid has slept through the night. Tonight he looked at me and said bedtime and I went in his room and put him to sleep. This is huge for me. My kid sleeping has been a big fight between me and my husband and I am doing it my way and it is working, knock on wood.

My husband leaves for 2 months this weekend and for the first time I am not worried about how hard being around a kid alone will be.

:)

It really depends on the age but I try to do consequences that make sense for whatever they did. Like if my kid spills water on purpose he just doesn’t get as much water or gets it taken away.

Psh, I have had that fear for months.

We always get sick from the children’s museums!! It’s the best time ever and then we pay for all the fun we had. Lol
