If you live in the, Northwest part of the United States you know this title is fitting for any mom, let alone any mom with children with special needs. Weekly and consistant snow and ice are keeping our children from attending school.
It was nice for the first two, but now the weekly worse than last weeks storms are killing me. Don't get me wrong I LOVE snow, and I have to admit, I love my kids - I would rather they be in school instead of being home fighting with each other and myself.
Everybody wants my attention at the same time for something different and for reasons unknown, I can't do it all. I do try and fail massively and someone ends up with hurt feelings. Today our middle son was on a mission of self preservation of being the "BEST" child. He tattled on everything. My youngest insisted on breaking several things useful for conditions outside and doesn't know how or why they broke and of course the ever - "I didn't do it". Our oldest is good at sneaking around causing trouble where it isn't necessary. He is good at threats and physical fighting.
So, now imagine being home with all of this for TWO DAYS straight, while hubby is working. It took me hours to clean up the mess (the breakfast) that they had - that seemed to span two to three rooms. My house isn't ever ready for Good Housekeeping, and will never be - but the mess was enough to make the best of man to gasp. ***OOOOHHHHH MY********
Help I am snowed in and can't get away from my own children or house - spring please come early.
Until next time.
Life is hard, children are even harder, and when they come with special needs - those parents are in need of special support, because life as we know it, feels like the "normal" life is over. You aren't going through life on your own, there are other parents out there. I know it feels lonely and exhausting at the same time. I am there with you. Come join me in my blog to support special needs kids all over.
