Child for sale...will take however much.

Seriously...well not really. Hannah has been going through this whinny, cries over everything stage and I just have had it. It's been going on the past 4 or 5 days and today I am losing it. Luckily my house is clean and Madison is being pretty good or I would be going super crazy! Today we went to a birthday party and Hannah just cried or told me no the whole time. Yeah, that was fun. But other then that I had a good time.

Hannah is a pretty good kid at school....yesterday though, Lindsey her teacher told me that she hit some one for knocking down her welly boots. Seriously????!!! Then when Lindsey told me she talked to Hannah, and Hannah does not like being told off, she starts crying saying, "But Beatrice knocked down my high heel welly boots." I am finding that in Hannah lately, you can't even tell her what she did wrong since first, she is crying and whining the whole time and second, she is always justifying her actions. This is seriously getting old!

And while I am typing away at this negative post can I just mention that I am like the worst mother ever! First off, Wednesday I missed the Easter Bonnet parade at Madison's school. It was at 2:45 and I was picking up Hannah and I'm freaking out since I'm thinking I'm super late since kids and parents are walking to their cars. I run up to the school and tell Ms. Morrell I'm so sorry and she says, "No you're fine." So then Madison comes and she says, "Mom! You didn't come to the parade. I was looking for you to show you my bonnet and you weren't even there. Good grief you are forgetful!" I felt so bad. So the next morning I got up early and made sugar cookies so she could frost them and take them to school. Well there was an after school activity that I didn't know about....well I'm sure I did but I'm a space cadet.....and so I pick Madison up and she's like well let's go to the fair mom. I have to break it to her we can't since I had already agreed to take Dan dinner at 4. So once again, I fail again as a parent. Madison looks at me and says, "It's ok mom, you are super forgetful and you should have written it down on the calendar, we will just have to go next year. Can you get me a chocolate muffin maybe then?" She's so awesome....so we get a chocolate muffin and go see her dad who she lets know how this whole dropping off dinner made her miss her Easter fair. So she not only made me feel guilty but her father too. At least I wasn't alone, right?
