The Hardest Job I’ve Ever Had

Posted on May 22, 2012 by Brandy | 2 Comments

Parenting, it is truly the hardest job I have ever had. I hate to tell my kids no. I hate to punish them when they have done wrong. I hate making them take responsibility for their actions. But it is my job as a parent to do these things. I love my kids and I want them safe. It is an emotional…

Silly (Putty) Butt!

Miss Emma is never short on her craziness. That girl is always up to something and has us all laughing til we can not breath. She was born that way. Naturally funny. Last night she was a naughty girl… Emma had been in bed for an hour. She came to tell me about a nightmare she had last night. I…

I’m sure more than a handful of dad’s have been in this situation…I know all of my girls have been this way!

At this time I do not allow Morgan to have a facebook. There is just too much on there that is not appropriate, for instance the porn hackers that have been filling my stream with horrible nasty images. Besides that though…she just isn’t old enough in my opinion. I see some people that let their 7 and 8 year old children have…

This could be the change we need! If all dads of boys would participate for a week, I bet we could knock out this behaviour pretty quickly! I hate seeing someones underwear! I hate my that my girls are subjected to seeing this sort of thing when we leave our home. I would be down however, for seeing some dads…

The night before we went camping we decided to hit up the local carnival. The girls are all at ages to enjoy this now and enjoy it they did! I thought Emma would be a bit scared, she isn’t as adventurous as Lauren or Morgan. I was wrong. I think Emma Loved the carnival the most! She would have stayed…

Help! She screams bloody murder like you are hurting her. She does this before you even get her hair wet! I swear I freak thinking someone walking by is going to call the cops thinking I am abusing this child. I have had talk after talk with her. I’ve tried letting her do it all her self. It just is…

This time I entered a photo I snapped of Morgan a few days ago. She is so hard to take pics of anymore. Always running and hiding from the camera or sticking her tongue out and making goofy faces. I was so happy with how this one turned out though! You can see how pretty she is and still see…
