It's been a long time since we had a vacation so I am feeling burned out.
And we're having a tough time with Nate lately.
And I'm watching my food and exercising to get back in shape.
And the "easy" transition to the fours room hit a massive bump as someone (not who you think) bit someone at school yesterday. It was not a good night. Someone spent hours in their room mostly crying, lost a ton of privileges, and got it explained to him he will be kicked out of school and leave his friends if it EVER happens again.
I'm ready for our beach vacation, too bad it's a few weeks away.

Oh man--rough. Today is a new day. Hope it plays out much better! Hugs.
Sorry for the rough run. I hope you survive the pre-vacation weeks and have lots of wine and (not overly fattening =) food to keep you occupied. We're having a rough behavioral run, too -- aren't the 4's supposed to be easier than 3 1/2?
Sorry for the rough going, hopefully things will smooth out soon. Not that it matters, but was the biter provoked?
When you are feeling beat down and having a rough day, the best thing I can do is offer to listen if you need to vent and virtual hugs.
And remember that you are already in amazing shape - anything you do extra in that department is just icing on the cake but we are both watching what we eat right now so mentioning cake and icing was probably not such a good idea.
I'm so afraid of the biting thing once we start preschool. We had a pretty nasty bite mark around here just this week. They're 3 years old now, they know better.
Hang in there. We just got back from vacation and I'm in a total funk. Maybe it's a vacation WITHOUT KIDS that I need. I've literally never had one of those. I think it's about time.
Hang in there! And just think about your next non-working, kid-free day.
Let me tell you, October cannot get here fast enough! I totally understand about feeling beat down, even when the kids are being good I've been running on empty lately. Is it horrible that I can't wait until 5-day-a-week preschool starts in 3 weeks?
Hugs!
Hang in there, tomorrow is another day. That vacation will come around sooner than you think, and it will be even sweeter because of the bumpy days. Do you have a good beach read picked out? Sending good vibes your way.
Is it just me, or do our kids tend to do incomprehensible and age-inappropriate things during the same week. Is it an age thing?
I'm sorry. Vacation will be good.
Sorry Laura. It is so exhausting. All of it! And it is good to vent. It is good to have a vacation to look forward to as well. When I feel like this, I try to have little 'treats' for myself. That usually perks me up a little. Hope your night was better.
