Hugs. Is he 4 by chance? My 4yo was giving me a run for my money this weekend too. I feel bad for saying this sometimes but thank god for work and daycare tomorrow. 5 and a half. Tomorrow he has to pick out 10 Pokémon cards to throw away. I’m great at this! Lol. Sigh. Mine is on her first weekend of vacation. I made her cry multiple times by asking her to stop talking and had to take away some privileges. Kids are a real drag sometimes.

Our day of recitals is over and I’m beat. I’m also very emotional. I’m so sad that we are moving and leaving our awesome Suzuki violin program. Especially since it’s free. I looked up prices in Minneapolis and I’m very 😳😫☹️ about it.

Add me to the “my 5 year old was awful this weekend” club. I’m pretty sure it’s because I was emotionally and physically unavailable this week, but screaming and being physically rough with me do not make me want to hang with you dude. At least he was good for my dad when he watched him for a couple hours yesterday. Sigh.

My six year old is mostly amazing one-on-one. But now that she’s in school, she’s decided that she’s way too cool for her little sisters and has become super mean to them. So that’s fun.

DD is a rule follower, and for the most part always has been. With DS, it's like a whole new ballgame. Must fight about everything, disagree constantly, poke at his sister whenever possible. When I told him something he didn't like today, he yelled he was "going to throw you in the garbage can!"

pobre and @juliagulia since the boys are all roughly the same age I’m convinced there’s some sort of awfulness that comes for 5.5-6 DD asked if we could send DS to boarding school for K today. He’s been terrible

My 4yo was especially nasty to his dad today and I was in bed most of the day with GI issues, so today had been fun

We just arrived at MH’s hotel- hooray! We’re down at the restaurant to get a bite to eat, and then it’s off to bed for us all.

Jesus fucking h Christ I just went to put a bottle of booze in the cupboard above the stove, and it slipped from my hands. Instead of the bottle breaking like IT FUCKING SHOULD HAVE, it broke my ceramic cooktop. Shattered. My H is pissed bc I am obviously drunk, which makes it way more eyeroll worthy. I am so pissed!

DS has also been the fucking worst lately. We went shopping yesterday and he just disappeared while we were Ross's. I kept my cool while his name was literally being called over the intercom but as soon as I saw him I just started sobbing. I legit thought I fucking lost him, he was hiding in a fucking cupboard.
Then he told me I was the worst mom ever after we got home and he got sent to his room for being a jerk.
Have kids they said, it'll be fun they said.

Thanks @juliagulia, this was my first real experience of "where's my kid?" and I wouldnt wish it on anyone. He was gone for almost 20 minutes.

On the brighter side of the experience H bought me basically a whole new wardrobe yesterday. Including a few sun hats since I guess I wear those now lol. So many comfy clothes. And some sexy ones too.

Credit to that place though, those employees were on that shit helping us. They locked down the store and searched every inch with us.
And people hate those leashes for kids, would have saved us a ton of trouble.

I feel like the second half of any age is awful, and just when you think you can’t handle it, they approach their birthday and turn angelic.
