October 29th 2015 - a simple math sum.....

What do you get if you put 3 boys into a car, strap them in and set off on a 5hr journey???  The answer is simple fighting and arguing!

3 kids + a car journey = living nightmare


This is made even worse when the said 5hr journey has delays due to lots of traffic, road works and accidents and takes over 6hrs.    Despite them having dvds to watch, toys and games, books to read, food to eat.  it's not good enough for them and the "he took my toy" and "dont poke me" and "it wasnt me it was him" etc starts.

They cant do the simple thing of sit nicely and do own thing, no they have to fight and argue which winds me up and we are all stuck in this small metal tin on wheels that isnt going anywhere very fast, we're not even near a slip road so we cant get off and find a service station or park for 10mins!  it drives me mad.  sooooo glad i dont do it very often.

May 31st 2015 - Fighting

This quote just about sums up today.  My eldest son has been nasty to the youngest and therefore the youngest has decided to take it upon himself to beat up his eldest brother.  To the extent the eldest has been crying.

I split them up by bringing the youngest downstairs, the eldest comes downstairs and the youngest throws himself at eldest again "because he hadn't finished his fight".  Apparently it will teach him not to be nasty again!

The joys of having 3 boys that fight loads!  I'm quite lucky it has never ended very seriously or with injuries!
