Daily frustrations

There are days when I get frustrated as a mom and today was one of those days. I try to be patient and understanding but some days I just don't get my children's frustrations. My day started out at 2AM when Katie woke up crying. I never did fall back asleep, thankfully she did. At breakfast Allie wanted Special K but when I handed her the bowl of Special K, she threw it across the room. It was a good thing that I had not put milk on it yet. Then at snack time, she threw her bowl of apples across the table and then she proceeded to sob for 10 minutes. Mia and Olivia came over to play and the entire time they were here, Katie was super crabby. Olivia's Birthday cupcakes didn't even cheer her up. Maybe our dispositions will change tomorrow if there is a bit of sunshine!
