[quote=Anonymous]You have to walk away. Not from your husband but from the frustrating stuff some days. Pick a night and sign up for a workout class. Leave the house and don't come back until bedtim is done. It will be amazing. It will be really hard for DH but he will manage. It can be the pizza bight if he takes the easy way outs maybe they won't be bathed, but you will get a mental break for caring for everyone. I did that for a year straight when youngest was 3 as she was adamant if only mommy for bedtime and it was unsustainable. For a while I did the workout class, then did a late workday and dinner/ikea out. Whatever. And the kids do feed off your negative energy. It sounds mean but it's true. When I pick them up with a smile and a joke most of the time it turns their sour mood around. And stop nagging your spouse. Decide Sunday what days they are in for dinner and leave it. At worst it'll be toast or scrambled eggs and frozen peas. People won't learn to do stuff themselves if someone's always reminding or saving them last minute. [/quote]
