It never goes completely away
I just had two hours of flashback. It was just like it was this time last year, two babies crying with no way to stop them and no idea what to do but sit on the floor and cry with them. Just because they are toddlers doesn’t mean that scenario goes away. Logan has always been one who wants constant attention and interaction, so take his normal attention whoreish ways, add teething into the mix combined with Forest teething and being sick and thus requesting constant attention…it just got uglier and uglier until it disintegrated into a room full of tears and snot. Thank goodness one of us knows how to blow our own nose.
There were babies falling all over the place and off of things, babies getting into bazaar predicaments (that’s a big thing these days, trying to fit into places that are too small and/or dangerous), fighting over places to stand and sit, stealing toys and fighting, fighting over momma’s lap, tantrums over momma not walking around holding them and letting them touch and play with whatever they want.
I have so much that I need to do to get the house cleaned and us ready for the weekend away but I’m so emotionally drained I’m just going to track down something easy to eat for lunch and lay down for a bit while the boys nap. Mopping can wait until Monday, however moping can not.
