Tantrums times TWO!!

Today started out great, after a rough night last night, my little munchkins slept til almost 8:30 this morning. Then it was breakfast time...... Lately the boys have been loving dry cereal for breakfast so today I decided they could sit on the couch with me and daddy and help themselves to the bowl I was holding....WELL, Michael wanted absolutly nothing to do with that and he made sure not only the whole house new about it, but im sure the whole town knew, it was just aweful, he threw himself on the floor, screamed and cried, banged his head on the floor or walls repeatedly and screamed and cried some more.
Once he settled down, I picked him up sat him on my lap and offered him some more cereal...NO WAY another tantrum, so I scooted him off to his room until he calmed down. Everything is right with the world again...well until nap time anyway.

The children have been going threw the "dont want to go to bed" phase again, which is fine, I can deal with that, but the hard part is that John insists on kicking the walls and door repeatedly out of frustration of not getting his own way, then they get out of bed and tear their room apart, from taking the mattress' off their beds to moving the whole bed frames across the room. Oh dear Lord, what am I going to do with these two!!

I will continue to love them and teach them and care for them and be patient, for this is only a season and this too shall pass!

At the end of the day when my two little angles are both sitting on my lap snuggleing with me...I remember just how much they mean to me, I Love them with all my heart, I wouldnt trade this for the world!
