4 hrs. and Counting.....Till The End Of The Day

[Josiegirl]

This a.m. 2 6 yos were arguing about some toys that 3 of them were playing with. I tried to help them split 'em up fairly so all would be happy. All they did was whine, fuss, complain, blahblahblah. OMGoodness! I finally sat those 2 at the table and said 'until YOU guys can work this out yourselves, you will NOT leave the table.' Must've been 20 minutes and I got so sick of the moaning, hemmin' and hawin' that I grabbed the toys and said no one gets them today.

During the same time frame, I had a 2 yo and 3 yo fighting about other toys, and both of those kids are such screamers it'd burst your ear drums.

This went on while I was trying to make lunch. I just wanted to take my 2 dogs(even they went into the bedroom to get away from it all)and walk out of the house, let the kids go at it by themselves.

3 more hours and 59 minutes.....

***, I know the feeling... I had 5 kids yesterday and 3 were screaming most of the day. My PT got here around 10:30 and threw a fit because she didnt want to be here. DCM always gets ****ed into the drama and so it just eggs it on. So that started the other 2 screaming because DCM wouldnt leave so that I could get everyone settled down..This went on for 20 min. I finally told her just go! Everybody was a hot mess for the rest of the day and none of them napped worth crap. She showed up for pickup early and set her child off again so everyone else joined in. DCM & I are having a talk when she shows up today. If she does.
