Life with Boys

Sooo, this has been winter break and why oh why do we have one (yes, I know teachers need a break to recoup), but it just doesn't make sense when we could have an extra week at the pool in the summer. What else do you do when it is too cold to go outside and everything else costs an arm and a leg to go and do.

Life with Boys, why the title. I'll tell you why. I have heard nothing but, burp noises, butt noises (yes, butt is a bad word at our house), toilet funnies, laughs at the word underwear...well, you get the point. And by the way, I have reached my limit. I am blogging to vent my frustration. I am considering drastic forms of punishment at this point to stop this malay (punishment being no wii or tv and maybe soap).

I haven't decided what may be the best course of action. Oh by the way, did I mention we are taking the course, "Growing Kids God's Way," by the Ezzos (the Babywise saints). Maybe I should consult the manual to see if they have a chapter on this stuff. That would be good and bad all at the same time.

So, please Dear Lord, my prayer to you would be for some patience and maybe a little creativity dealing with this situation and maybe a way for me to have some quiet girly time that doesn't involve body functions, except maybe a manicure and pedicure.
