When you have had the worst day?
When your child decides to ONLY take a 30 minute nap?
When you have 20 minutes to vacate your house for a showing?
When you only want to eat but are actually trying to lose weight?
When your baby keeps spitting up spit?
When you still don't know where you are moving?
When you hear "Mamma" only at the highest decibel possible for humans, over & over again?
When you have purchased the 1000th set of pacifiers because your daughter thinks it's really funny to throw them out the door EVERY time the car door opens (they are pure silicon so they bounce)?
When you are singing 'Wiggles' songs in your head all day?
When you can't even get on your computer until 10pm because your baby thinks SHE should control the mouse?
YOU (read: me) put the baby to bed really early, pour a cold Diet Coke with a slice of fresh lime, draw a bath with the most amazing bubbles, hand the monitor to your husband and DISAPPEAR for 35 minutes of pure bliss! And I gotta' tell ya', it totally worked!!! I feel so much better! I feel so good that I almost feel bad about typing the above information! Almost...
ohhhhh i love this post! what a happy ending. and don't feel bad you can look back on this on another crappy day and feel hopeful. i can solve the "you still don't know where you're moving" MOVE TO ARIZONA!

i would have to agree with stacy, ARIZONA is the answer. having said that i do get sad sometimes that my kids are not the age that ava is and that time has passed so quickly. they are so much fun now, but i still wonder where has the time gone and is it going to pass just as quickly to that dreaded teenage season? i am sorry you have had a rough day. if you move to AZ we could help on days like this. :) miss you loves!
