privacy parties
Nobody had enough sleep last night, and I'm coming down with A Very Nasty Something.
The combination is pretty lethal for squabbling, roiling, yelling, crabby--um, "testing"--behavior.
Here they come again.
"Mo-om!!!" [When you are sick, you are never just "Mom" or even just "Mom!"]
"[Six] is hitting me!!!"
Mo-om!!! tiredly replies: "Move farther away from him."
My attempt at peace-making, or, rather, DMZ-building fails; the yowling increases.
"MO-OM!!! [Six] is hitting me....in the Privacy!!!"
Dragging my aching head up to more or less sitting height, I try to remember why I wanted kids.
Six: "Hahahahahahahaha. You Dumbhead! I didn't hit you in the Privacy! I hit you in the Private Party."
Oh, yeah. Now I remember.

Lynda- once again, you have moved me to laughter and tears. I check your blog at least twice a day to see what else you have to say.
Thanks.
