Its been a long day and it still isn't over. Here it is almost 11:00 pm and we are still working on homework...Surprise, surprise it isn't mine. I have been sitting with Nicole working on an essay. If it were mine I have it done and over with. Writing comes rather easy for me, but I guess for others it isn't as easy. Many times I feel like just taking her assignment and doing it myself, but how would she learn from that?
Some days I absolutely hate the idea a being a parent. Tonight we...meaning Josh and I got into it again with Adam. He seems to think the world is his and we just exist in it and have to drop to answer his beckoning demands....Ahhhh HELLO!!! I think not! He doesn't seem to get the concept that he still lives under someones roof and has rules to live by. So he didn't like what I had to say, so he walk out the door saying "WHATEVER!" The good thing about modern day technology...I can still tell him what I think through text messages....So he can think he was done....but NO he was still getting a text full from me. And he was even replying to me...(Honestly, that is the only reason I keep his cell phone turned on. If it wasn't for that I'd shut the stupid thing off!) ONE UP FOR MOMS AND CELL PHONES!!! :)
Some days I feel like I am walking on tip toes trying not to offend my kids. But I shouldn't have to do that. Its especially hard when you don't want to be the bad guy. I have learned that I will be the bad guy, but they still love me. I can't wait for that day when they do look back and say "Mom, Dad, you were right!" I have gotten that a couple time from Breanne, but with Adam....that day may never come! I can only sit back and watch and give him my thoughts. At this point, its been a no go, but maybe one day he will get it.
I can only hope....right?
