The No So Cranky Dada is right, and my Boy is likewise right, that we tend to give ourselves too little credit for the job we manage to do. Sumo-wrestling a toddler demanding all of our attention and Everything Right Now while trying to get other stuff done that just has to be done. Doing the above without losing our shit on a permanent basis. Getting up again tomorrow knowing that it may happen all over again ten thousand times before these kids give us a moment's peace. Motherhood. It ain't for wimps. A little of one, little of the other.
