Yes thats what my nanny kids were for me today. No I am not sleeping with anyone nor will I ever until I am married. Today while watching my nanny kids I thought to myself I am never having kids. I don't want to be mom. Now these thoughts don't cross my mind too often. I love kids and I look forward to the day I can be a mom. I would like to think I am pretty good with kids. They are like my favorite things in the whole world. They are so close to christ(most of the time) Today I lost my partience. I am pretty good with my kids I nanny, especially with Luke and Claire who are harder than most kids. Luke has been diagnosed with something called the explosive child. Luke gets angry and violent very easily. Easier than most kids on any given day. Claire on the other hand doesn't have this but she has been following her brothers example and going through the terrible two's at three years old. She never went through it then. I think it has to do with the lack of attention she is getting because of their baby gwen who needs so much attention.

Today I was going to loose it. The kids were being bad and getting into everything. I would turn my back and they would hit each other or start yanking and hanging on the christmas tree. I had to get Gwent to sleep because she was so tired. I wanted to pull my hair out today. Then I brought them to my house where they started jumping on my moms couch. Our couches are cream colored and very easily show dirt. My mom would freak if she say them jumping on the couch. I yelled at them for that and gave them a Timeout. I just didn't have patience for them today.
Tonight I had to watch the Addie, Olivia, and Sam. They are great and well behaved for the most part. But since I had lost patience earlier in the day I was kinda loosing it with their little mischievousness. I was trying to be so good though.
I really need to remember to laugh. I think Wirthin said in his talk. One of the prophets said it. NOTE TO SELF: remember to laugh.

Well despite my lack of patience I did manage to get cute pictures today. Enjoy!
