It was the same as any other day; same wake-up time, same breakfast, same hours of sleep prior to wake up, same hours passed since the last meal. But why on earth did both of my children wake up SO CRANKY!?!? Within an hour of time spent with my two beautiuful little munchkins, both were sent directly to their rooms for mommy-enforced "quiet time". They were both wailing and carrying on. I stood my ground, literally half spaced between both bedroom doors and proclaimed, "You two need time to yourselves! Mommy needs time to herself! You will sit QUIETLY in your beds, doing whatever it is you need to do to become your SELVES again. I will be spending 30 minutes by myself, excercising, because that is what I need to do to feel like my SELF again. GOT IT?" Silence. Good. Let's roll.
The rest of the day was peaceful and lovely, just like my two girls!
