Inflexibility has reared its ugly head yet again..... here is my Sunday morning drama....
Sunday for us has always been a church/family day for us. Today is a little different because it is also our church banquet tonight along with a play that our youth group has put on. My fiance and I have been asked to help with the set up and decorating right after the church service is done. Now I live 20 min out of town so we decided that is was better that we not return home only for an hour just to return back to town.
I knew that all this would be rough on my difficult child, so like a well organized mom I made a play date for him so he wasn't bored... well wouldn't you know it the play date fell through. difficult child's friend got the flu last night... well..... the world has now ended. Nothing is fun, Nothing is good.... I am NEVER home, "it's like I want to sell my kids and not have them around" .... oh my goodness. I am thankful that I have developed tough skin throughout these past few years.
Some days it feel like I have walked 2 steps forward and thrown a mile back....
