So, a few weeks back I had a deeply moving and spiritual blog post to write about. Then I forgot to write it and it was all gone. So that ship has sailed. Sorry you missed it. This blog post is waaaayyyyy different than that.
Today was one of "those days" again. I've had an ongoing headache for a week and that makes me Grumpy Mommy. Big time. On top of that the akps decided to forego naptime. In lieu of rest, they decided to aggravate each other and the little akp tore apart her room. Again. I begged and

Life with girls, am I right?
The moral of the story? Well, there isn't one. It was cathartic to write about my horrible afternoon and in a weird way helped me get my joy back. The devil has been coming up with crazy ways to steal my joy and its up to me to get it back. Well, would ya look at that. I did have something spiritual to say.
