My life is SO much eaier when:

• I feed Md AS SOON as he wakes up
• I make a big pot of rice on monday and use it in all of MDs meals for the rest of the week-same thing with sweet potatoes
  
• I make a huge salad for myself and have it available for the rest of the week
• My kids take long naps
• When I realize that all MDs whinig is due to him being thirsty
• When I make menus-then i don't have to try to come up with something on the spot
• When cousins come over and entertain my kids
• When I realize my son doesn't HATE me- he just doesn't agree with my style of parenting
• When i stay busy- i am so much happier that way
