Extreme Naughtiness

It seems to me that my little angels have gotten quite naughty as of yet.  I am hoping that it is just a stage and nothing permanent!  Both Katie and Allie had super bad days on Thursday, a day of not listening and quite a bit of sassysness.  There was a point in the day when I took a deep breath, gave them each a big hug and said, "I know you are having a bad day, just remember that I love you so much."  Their response to this was (screaming on top of their lungs), "No I am NOT having a bad day!"  I think this part of parenting is going to be the toughest yet.....please say many prayers for patience for me :)
