A: "Mom, you know that black coat Daddy has? Me: "You mean his leather?" A: Now holding the coat after getting it out of the closet herself. "This one. I want a coat like this. With a skirt." Love her awareness of fashion, albeit a little out of date. Also not sure where she got such an idea.

Patience is a Virtue...

and something I don't have. I am so overwhelmed with work, the house, end of school year activities that I am very short tempered right now. My kids would probably say I am always short tempered...that work think doesn't help any. I am definitely worse than usual. I feel so badly and stay awake at night promising myself I will be better tomorrow. Once I get the first attitude or fight I have to break up, that typically ends it right there. But, alas, I will try again tomorrow.
