    Hahaha, my kids didn't even notice the difference this year, but I remember some years were tough!

    oh, what a crazy day we are having with our 2 year old. The older ones don't seem to notice as much. Hope to back to a "normal" routine soon.

    It is when we "spring ahead" that makes me grumpy 😉

    Kids don't do daylight savings…what extra hour? OH, the hour earlier they get up now? Oh, yes!

    Since my kids are lazy slobs, and too old for naps, it works for me!

    Twice a year now I want to smack those crazy people who came up with this idea! Especially since we adults can't get over the idea that we can stay up later because we'll get to sleep an extra hour.

    Oh yeah. Poor Ben found that Mass came at lunch time and he spent the entire time saying over and over, "I want to go home. I don't want to be at church. I want to go home," in varying volumes and degrees of whining. Of course then at bedtime prayers his "Thank you God" for the day was, "Thank you, God, for going to church." So I guess it wasn't a total loss.

    Poor George looks beat.

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
