Be more patient with my kids

I feel so terrible that I even need to make this a goal.
My kids deserve better from me.

Some days I have such a short fuse!

I work in a childcare center with a group of one year olds. I have found myself manipulating their bodies a lot lately. Like if I want them to move, I pick them up and move them instead of asking them to move. I’m really trying to break this habit. We want them to learn not to push or grab others, so really it doesn’t make sense for me to swoop them up and carry them away from whatever I don’t want them to have. I have to find a different way to get them to do what I need them to do.

And I know things are going to get harder with the boys living in two houses. I must try to remember to be patient and have an open and honest relationship with them – and sometimes just let them be kids.

no one ever said parenting was easy. Thank you God for Blessing me with my beautiful kids. I am proud to say that i have been a great role model to my children and will continue to do so. me and my children were watching “wife swap” the other day and my daughter said to me “mommy you would never do that right?” i then said “yes , i would try”. my kids started screaming ” no mommy we ove you”. i have never been so happy , proud ,or loved in my life then in that one moment.

My son is the greatest. I love him to death, and for the most part he is a very well behaved child. But sometimes, when he doesn’t listen, it gets me pissed off. but just look at his picture and you’ll see that I can’t stay mad at him for long.

Being finished with school for the semester and getting more rest is definitely helping with this. I’m making progress, but don’t know that this goal can ever truly be achieved.

I’m a younger mom. I have 5 kids ages almost 1 all the way up to almost 13

One just hit the terrible twos
The one that is almost 13 is a hormonal teenage girl

Hubby works 2-11 PM and tons of overtime… It’s just me with the kids.

enough said?

Hi i am a mum of 2 girls aged 6 and 8. I have been married for 10 years. I am finding that i am losing my patience with the girls a lot more than i used to. They do argue a lot which i hate and i cant even listen to it for a minute without telling them off. I just find that when i ask them to things i am repeating myself then i lose my patience with it. It hasn’t always been this way, normally i am quite patient with them. I am not sure how to explain it but i guess its like pms when you try to be reasonable but it just doesn’t happen.

i want to lose 30 pounds of “baby weight”
