I want to lock my children in a room for a few hours.

I know. Call CPS on me. But seriously, it’s one of those days. You know you’ve had the same thoughts before. You just haven’t admitted it out loud or you have and you completely understand what I’m feeling right now. And don’t let that picture above fool you, these two have been at each other the last few days.

Lucas has a cold and is showing his TERRIBLE 2′s.
Cohen is expressing his stubborn 3′s.
&
Momma has raging hormones that are difficult to control.

We’ve been away from “home” for 5.5 weeks and although I am loving every minute of being with family, I think being out of our “daily” routine is taking a toll on the kids – shoot, on me too! I just have to remember that this time with family is special and when it comes to an end I will be so very sad to leave. I know it will be hard on the kids too. So, for now I’ll just let this be my venting session and then tell myself to suck it up – kids will be kids – and even though I want to lock them away – life will go on.
Do you ever feel like you want to lock your kids up or run away for a few hours?!














I think every Mom feels like that every once and awhile!! I know I sure do!! Being a Mommy is the toughest job out there
We just want them to behave all the time and it’s just not realistic! Their outbursts always seem to happen on days we really want to go well too… luck of the draw I guess
You’re right, we all have those days and I understand being away from home for long periods and getting all out of whack!
I’m thinking you should be entering your cute photos in the mommy moments photo challenge over my way!
just sayin…

Absolutely!! And today is one of them!! The little one is refusing to nap, the older one is taking her sweet time cleaning her room (which means not cleaning it at all!!) Mommy is fighting with Daddy and having horrible cramps. I’d like to lock my whole family in a room today, but I think I”m going to go take a nice long steaming hot shower instead.
Oh my goodness YES! Especially when it’s 4pm and she hasn’t taken a single nap that day and her teeth are bothering her and she’s itchy (she’s got excema) and miserable and driving me nuts! And all I want to do is make HER dinner without her screaming at my feet and causing me to trip endlessly over her, which of course makes her scream even louder!
Whew. Yes. But then she goes and gives me one of those, “I am RIDICULOUSLY cute, no?” faces and I melt, and decide NOT to lock her in her room for an hour.
Oh, but if she didn’t have that look…she’d be in there for SURE.
Stay strong momma! x

You know I feel the same way like you do.. Sometimes I just want them to sleep for hours so I can make the things I should do at home and even at work..

I totally hear you! Those kind of days are rough and I think all of us moms can relate to them!!
That’s when I go for my afternoon cup of coffee

Saying hi from Casey’s blog! Love your site!
I feel that way, at least for short burst, at least once a day:)
Oh, mama. I feel you. All too well.
Hey hunny
We all get days like that- I hope you are feeling a bit better now.
