Full Moon Be Damned!

Don't know why or how this phenomena works but I swear it is in full effect under this roof.  The kids have been, as Mya says, BUCK WILD all day long.  Chase has been a terror...disobeying truly EVERY request presented to him.  And Miss Thang has decided to take cue and lose her mind as well.  Dad even lost it for a quick minute.  Frankly, I think I am the only one in the house at this point who has not been affected by the lunar lunacy!  And I must say that this is a first as I am generally the one to have my panties in a bunch and be snarky & short-fused...I'm beginning to think I may be a witch?  After the evening of insanity that was sealed with Mya screaming at the top of her lungs, she finally settles down enough to say to me "Mommy, I'm so sorry that I disappointed you.  I'll be better next time." Seriously?  You're pulling THAT one out on me?  The problem is I don't even think she knows how to "use" this phrase in the manipulative sense. I am forced to believe that this may very well have been an honest, heart-felt apology.  So now I am only left to sit here and feel like Joan Crawford.  How the hell did that happen?  Curses & good night!

  2. If it is this much fun now, wait until they are teenagers. This is every grandparents revenge on their own children. (grin) Just kidding, you guys are great parents. Susan

  3. Susan, I am convinced you are right! I am already looking forward to being a grandma if you can believe that! And I am certain that my mom is smiling down on all of these trial and tribulations :)
