On Tuesday we hosted a play date at our house. I have gotten to know a group of moms from ECFE and over the years we have had many great conversations together. All of us have girls, are part time stay at home moms, have at least 2 children and basically have the same parenting values. Our children always play well together and it is getting to the point where the children play while us moms talk without much interruption. On Tuesday I came to realize that I am not the only mom who:
1. Has to wait sometimes over 30 minutes for my children to pick out a pair of shoes and put them on.
2. Has to be a referee and step in when my children want the same thing.
3. Has to reason with my children when it is cold outside they must wear a jacket.
4. Has to point out to my children that sometimes I know a bit more than my 4 year olds think and they are not always right about everything.
5. Has trouble putting my children to bed after day care lets take a nap.
It is so nice to know that other parents struggle too!
