the fairytale

I'm aware that I am bordering on over doing my blog.....but I'm full of wonder (and other not so pleasant emotions today)
How can one perfectly lazy day with the kids be followed by today?

Is this what I signed up for?



Is this how days go at other people's houses? One day, confident in my parenting, at ease among the chaos and clutter of my children and the next day leaves me wondering if my children will be successful despite my parenting!

Where is the white picket fence, the sun, the laughter...the fairytale?
