One of THOSE DAYS.

Have you had those days that are just a comedy of errors? And at the end of the day you feel exhausted and kinda like you failed?

Our day started at 3am- when Emmaus decided it was "go time". 

Our oven is broken- or something. Has no power going to it. 

Our freezer was leaking. (Hubby spend all evening fixing this! yay!)

We got to Emmaus' orthotics fitting exactly five minutes late- not to shabby with the start of the day- (which turned out to be 35 minutes late because the appt was at 9 and not 930 like I thought.)

We did have a lovely lunch with a friend

 but the kid was pretty crabby and made this HORRID whining sound all day. 

I actually found myself saying "That noise is ugly, and your face is kinda ugly when you make it"

YEAHHHHH.......shining mom moment.

Then I may have harshly told my sweet (horridly whiney, exhausted kid) to 

"GET IN BED AND GO TO SLEEP" after putting her back in bed for nap time  around 400 times.

I will give myself some credit- because I was incredibly patient at 4am when she was clearly not going back to sleep. However- at 3pm I was one TIRED mama.

It's good for me to learn to apologize for my bad attitude to my child. 

I hope as she grows- she doesn't think of me as a mean mom who yells- (I really don't yell often)

But as a mom who loves her fiercely, but is flawed, and has to ask for forgiveness too. 

Cause- WOW this mom gig is hard.

And to remind myself that not all days are this hard. Here are a few pictures from yesterday- 

we had a great day and Emmaus loved the farmstead!

Giving the sweetest- wettest kisses EVER

 Learning about Animals with Daddy.

This girl loved the animals. 

We topped the afternoon off with My 30 week sono to take a final peak at baby & check for any signs of TSC. This baby has no signs of TS that Emmaus had.  We are so thankful. 

(And Eager to meet this babe!)
