What do you want from me?

I believe every parent needs a break at some point. And I am no exception. But I feel bad putting my kids off on someone else to deal with. Now granted they NEVER act horrible for other people. Which I then feel like people are looking at me like "What the heck do you need a break from!?". But trust me, they are out of control!

I have always had trouble with Connor's behavior. And I really don't ever see that changing. I just deal with it. I don't know what else to do. And Kerri is just....well Kerri. (see my last blog) And as far as that goes, people can look at me like I'm crazy all they want when I mention Kerri and Autism in the same sentence. But she is so incredibly difficult!
(a quick update on Kerri....her dr is sending her to a child phsycologist to get her evaluated for autism AND O.C.D.! Just one more thing to add to my list of things to worry about. I can handle autism. Not sure if I could handle OCD.)
Anyway, like I was saying, I expect this incredibly stressful behavior from Connor and Kerri. But Lilly??? For the past week or two she has been out of control. Lilly has always been our "easy child". She's always been well behaved and has always listened so well. She helps out everytime we ask. Before this week I have never had to spank her (yes I spank my kids) or even send her to her room. But lately she has been having major tantrums. Like throwing herself on the floor, kicking, screaming, slaming doors, kicking walls, saying "I hate you" tantrums! Honestly it's like having a second Connor in the house. Now don't get me wrong. I love Connor to death. He's my first born, and my only son. He is extremely special to me. But he has issues.................

Ok I have had to stop typing so many times that I have lost my train of thought....the point is I'm stressed!

*Note to self: post new blogs only when the kids are SLEEPING!!!!!

~Aren't you glad when you hear kids screaming in a store and they aren't yours?~
