Mine are 2,4,5,6 and 15. Oh, and then there is the 4 month old puppy and the 41 year old hubby. There is never a quiet moment. Oh, here they are again.....
Mine are 21 mo., going on 5, and 7yrs. Sheesh, you have your hands full! My girls are okay, but this son of mine... Why do you think I'm on here so much now? The only thing I do is chase him, read a few lines, chase him, post a few lines...take something out of his hands, read a few lines.....uh oh, there he goes!!!!!

Oh, I feel your pain. My last boy is such a handful. I always say that if God had given him to me first, I would have never had more!!!!!!! (But the worst part is that he is so adorable when he's doing it.)

Just give it a few more years and this will change...I promise . Girls are only easier to raise than boys until about 15 or 16


Thank you everyone for your words of encouragement! I really appreciate it. I'm feeling a bit better, but sometimes it would really help to just see some LIGHT at the end of that long dark tunnel.

Sorry, kawgpz550.

It does sometime seem like bad things happen all at once. I do have faith that these things will be resolved and will build strength in you and your family. God bless you.

This sounds truly rediculous to me, but my husband once told me (he was referring to a friend of mine who's life was in absolute turmoil) that God really must love her to be taking so much time out of his schedule to try to get her attention. So, Kawg, look at the upside. This proves that God love you sooooo very much.

I think that is called "life", also Murphy's Law hard at work. I have had months of nothing going on, now all at once in past several weeks is huge upheaval in every aspect of my life! Kawg, where in Texas are you moving? Is also very hot here, and made exponentially worse by the humidity. At least AZ is dry heat!

Thanks Weather! That "truly" inspirational...I think?

Just go to the Lord and say Lord I put it all your hands to help get me through these hard times. Sometimes we take on too many things at once,and say I can do it all by myself and not look towards God for His helping hand.

I'm sorry, but I think you were out of line in what you said to the clerk. In addition, if your daughter is 17, you shouldn't be fighting her battles for her.

If your house has been on the market for a long time, is it just your house that isn't selling or are things overall slow in your area? Have you been with the same realtor for the whole time? Is there anything you can do to spruce up the appearance for the cheap like a can of paint or rearranging furniture to make the rooms look bigger?

You seem very stressed so I hope things work out for you to help relieve some of the stress.

Where in Texas are you going? Maybe we can be neighbors (I'm moving to El Paso)?
