How does one keep up with a blog when you constantly have 2 children within a 10 foot radius who are a.) screaming; b.) fighting; c.) demanding something ridiculous; d.) trying to kill each other; e.) trying to kill themselves; or f.) trying to climb up into your lap so that they, too, may pound on the keyboard causing strange things to happen on your computer screen.

To this, I have no answer. I am far from a perfect mother, and really have nothing figured out, other than somehow, my little family thrives in chaos (or at least, in creating it). I can attest to the fact that writing is cathardic for me, and I rarely get the chance to do it...which is most likely why I'm constantly pulling my hair out. When I hear people say "you should write a book", my comeback should be "wanna babysit for a few months?".

My goal over the next month is to find the time to actually put fingers to keyboard, to try and give justice to the pandemoneum I'm subjected to every day. The problem is, just as the world seems to calm down, and I'm able to form a collective thought, I have 2 children within a 10 foot radius who are a.) screaming; b.) fighting; c.) demanding something ridiculous; d.) trying to kill each other; e.) trying to kill themselves........
