I hate rush hour

WHY do both children have to chuck tantrums at the same time? And why is it always 5pm?

Here's me trying to finish the dishes, take washing off the line and start tea with one screaming baby who is fighting not to sleep, and one 5-yr old who's chucking a tantrum coz he has to have a bath!

Enough already!

And then DH gets home and wonders why I look like a wreck! Its all in the hour between 5-6pm I tell you!

Enough already!

Dear Nat,

I think everyone has these days. I have two older children and this is the time (everyday) they start fighting with each other. Now they have 'chores' to do at this time. Still have the arguing but usually with me. You sound like a great mum. God bless you!!!

It's exactly the same in our house Nat LOL!!! One thing that has helped through winter is my slow cooker. I only bought it a couple of months ago and it makes life so much easier if I can get dinner started earlier in the day. Just know that we're all going through it together :)
