VLOG- Parenting

I love my two boys, they are as different as they could be! In today’s VLOG I talk about the difficulties of having an energetic (aggressive?) child and a calm-laid back child (victim?) and they contrasting feelings it creates. Advice? PLEASE!

 

Mud Puddles

Yesterday was one of those days that I sat down in the living room with the tv on and didn’t feel like moving again. Partly that is because by the time I find the remote I’m so exhausted from searching that I don’t want to move again and partly because my two boys  who don’t get along at all have occasional negative interactions in the evening involving (but not limited t0) biting, kicking and punching.

Bug asked to go outside and in my desperation for peace I opened the door to let him go play. I have a fenced in back yard and these warmer than usual winter days have been great for my high energy boys!!

I had stillness. Silence. Peace.

Then I noticed Bug acting strangely as he walked into the kitchen then quietly snuck back out side. I thought he must have got some contraband from the kitchen he planned on eating outside.

Nope. He found his first mud puddles.

He had snuck inside the house to clean his hands and left a lovely trail of mud, rocks and debris.  and I went and got my camera. :)
