The Stress of it All, I need to breath and get through this week. Almost home.

I have to admit something, and I know some might not like to hear this, but it has to be said.

I AM GOING CRAZY EMOTIONALLY WITH EVERYTHING THESE DAYS.

I might look happy with my smiles and my happy tone of voice when I am round family and during the kids school, but as soon as I am home and in my own personal space, I look and feel like this woman in the GIF moving picture. I just feel like I can’t breath.

At the beginning of covid I was just a mother and trying to get through the days when we were stuck at home and having to spend every house with the kids playing and watching tv to pass the time was one thing. Now I have to become their teacher too.

I knew this wasn’t going to be easy, but it has been a struggle to keep my patients with everything. Splitting my personality into teacher mode and mom mode is hard. Harder than I thought.

Especially when my apt was flooded and everything I made for my kiddos was wreck. I had to start from scratch in this temp place and can not wait to go home and rebuild all over again. However my only hope that when we do go home, things will go back to how things were.

The kids are fighting more than ever, and reverting on a daily basis. If you don’t know what revert means in kid terms, it means that they are acting less of their actual age and forgetting all they have learned and are just going back to being babies at some level.

It’s just hard. Its going to take some time, but we’ll get back to normal soon. I can only hope. By normal, I mean a normal routine in our normal space. The world going back to normal is going to have to wait.

Something we have forgotten and have been slipping on for sometime is our 1.2.3 MAGIC family lessons. Which is a miracle for family’s with kids who are having a hard time listening. We definitely recommend it. It’s harder on the parents than it is the kids, cuz it’s training the parent to control their patients and temper (voice levels ) and turning it into a new solution for handling…….. I’m just to say it naughty children. Lol. My kids are wonderful and I love them, but all kids can have bad days, and mine do. Just a lot these days cuz they are upset and sad.

So like I said, once we get home, back to it 1.2.3 and back to normalcy .

Just wish me luck.
