I just stepped outside for a minute and heard my neighbor's little girl throwing an absolute screaming tantrum. I heard something, a toy I imagine, get thrown across the room and hit the window with a thud. I also heard the voice of a mother who was completely out of patience with her daughter, but trying so hard to remain calm.
As I walked up the sidewalk, I chuckled quietly to myself. Partly because this was so very similar to the scene that unfolded in my own house just 2 hours earlier tonight, and partly because I was so glad not to be the only one that this happens to. It made me feel just a little bit better knowing that I am not alone.

Wait until its a 12 year old oh it just keeps getting better!
I love your stories and outlook! Of course we are not alone but oh how it feels that way at times. Man, have we had our fair share of fits around here lately. Your girls are so cute and we were excited to see that another is on the way! Congrats!
We had that all weekend! But clean rooms are essential and worth fighting over, right?
