Today was very difficult. I took the kids to the grocery store today for an epic stock up event since we have not been in a couple of weeks and was not able to do it the previous weekend for a couple of reasons. Anyways the trip was BAD….I mean I can deal with a fair amount of stress but this was making me twitch a bit. Small trips we can do…but the big trips I usually do on my own before they come over. But with myself them all the time due to “recent” events it was not possible this time. I love my kids with all my heart but at times they can be very trying….I feel like I need to act like the bus driver on SouthPark at times….”Sit down and shutup!” Lets just say by the end of the trip towards the check out lane Rowen was crying since she wanted a XYZ shampoo and Kolyn had to hold my hand the last three aisles since he could not stop touching/picking things up. If I had to stand behind anyone that could not speak English with WIC coupons I may have killed them with tic tac’s or a candy bar….(They are reachable at that point…and another rant at another time.)
Anyways the kids are FINALLY asleep and I am sitting here enjoying the peace and quite with my own thoughts and my laptop screensaver kicks on….It has every single thousand picture I have taken of them queued up and random. I find myself staring at this thing for a good 15 minutes smiling and have to pry myself away from it.
All I wanted to say is that my kids my drive me CRAZY at the rare time but at the end of the day I love them/you guys so much it drives me to try and be a better father and daddy everyday. I may not excel or exceed but I will always try for you guys.
I guess this post is more for me so I can at times step back..take a breath and see that my two little loves/minions are sweet and awesome kids that I will always to evolve for.
This post took way to long….such a bad writer…what? It is a 11:11?
