Some days, its all I can do to make it from "Son up to Son down"......know what I mean!
I really try very hard to give my kids the best.
Yes, I get short when they keep bugging me to 'snuggle' and won't let me clean.
Yes, I get frustrated when all I want them to do is play nicely and then I catch Josh pegging Zoey with a ball.
(Then he has the audacity to ask why he has to go to Time Out!)
But, I saw this from a friend and it make me feel good.

It's a study that says that when kids go to bed at a set time regularly, they have less behavior problems.
All together now.....
DUH!!!!!!
I may be known as the schedule Nazi around here, but by golly, my kids are better for it. And by schedule Nazi, I mean Sleep Nazi.
Even when Josh was younger, I didn't miss naps.
I once read a book and it talked about how you should protect that sacred time-not only for your sake, but mostly for your kids.
A well-rested kid (and a Mama given a break) is a happy kid (and Mama!)!
