Mother of the Year or Monster of the Year? Let Your Family Decide
Motherhood is a priceless gift. There have been days that I wake up and feel like the best mom ever. The kids are clean, kind and obedient. Then there are other days. The other days look a bit like a crazy movie and leave me feeling like a complete failure. The dishes are overflowing in the sink, the house is a wreck, the kids are grumpy, the hubby is looking at me like I am the incredible hulk and I happen to feel like a crazy monster from outer space.

We both had one goal in mind to squeeze, twist and turn the others hands and wrist hard enough for the other to holler out in pain the word, “Mercy!” As soon as the word was spoken, the game was over.
