Keeping the Peace

So, I am the Mama of four daughter, and I feel so gifted to have them…..however…..today has been one of those days where I have done nothing but play referree…fighting, bickering, mean words, tattle telling…today is one of those days that reminds me of why my mother needed some “quiet time” in her room with a cool washcloth on her eyes!

Days like today also help  me understand why some parent spank their kids.  I have been pretty exasperated today.  But really, hitting our kids to punish them for hitting each other???
