I hope to be that way sometime!<BR/><BR/>Heather/Michele - Glad that I"m not the only one that feels it's tough. I look forward to their bedtime so I can have some "me" time and when they delay delay delay, it means no "me" time. Thank goodness for the DVR so I actually get to watch TV sometimes.Nicole Bradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11614793923720096859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229197158436332537.post-53835149216279436562008-02-05T15:55:00.000-06:002008-02-05T15:55:00.000-06:00OK, I finally had time to read your posts that I'v...OK, I finally had time to read your posts that I've missed and I have to say I'm the exact same way at bedtime. I feel like it's a chore ... and we only have one kid ... and my husband makes it a game. So much so that I have to keep reminding him that it's getting late ... get a move on, etc. I feel like the bad cop and he is the good cop having fun with Zoe. I really do need to lighten up but I'm always so tired by that point that I just want to get her in bed so I can make her lunch, clean up a bit and get in bed myself. It's definitely a balancing act.Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058386764811033042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229197158436332537.post-6805499118734692002008-02-04T17:55:00.000-06:002008-02-04T17:55:00.000-06:00That's good advice, but so hard to stick to at the...That's good advice, but so hard to stick to at the end of the day when your so tired and just ready for them to be asleep already. But, there's nothing sweeter than the sound of children laughing. I'll try to remember that tonight at bedtime.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06021115136487735411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229197158436332537.post-19156525635499545542008-02-03T23:14:00.000-06:002008-02-03T23:14:00.000-06:00My hubby and I flip flop you at bedtime.

I will tickled them and pray with them and encourage them to sing the song to me that night or whatever just to change it up a bit. I think it is because at bed, I realize I didn't enjoy them as much as I could or should have all day! <BR/>KEEP BELIEVINGAngie @ KEEP BELIEVINGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930977696454848345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229197158436332537.post-19808589748064791382008-02-02T21:22:00.000-06:002008-02-02T21:22:00.000-06:00Thanks, Michele... you totally made my day.

In my very first Saving Money on Christmas Shopping post, I said "Even if only one person manages to make use of information from my blog, I'll consider it a success."<BR/><BR/>And feel free to rave about it all you want - better than you telling me you hate my ideas! :)<BR/><BR/>Ref: http://sahmtoo.blogspot.com/2007/11/saving-money-on-christmas-shopping.htmlNicole Bradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11614793923720096859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229197158436332537.post-77511367398254232262008-02-02T20:47:00.000-06:002008-02-02T20:47:00.000-06:00I'm sorry to keep raving about this but I just got...I'm sorry to keep raving about this but I just got off a very long phone conversation with my Mom and she was giving me the run-down of how she used her basket of greeting cards. She told me each person and why she sent the card. She is having such a great time with those cards so thanks yet again for a great idea. I'm going to put another packet together and send to her in a few weeks because I think she is going to be out of cards quickly : )Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058386764811033042noreply@blogger.com
