Parenting & Being A Diva

I have been up since 7:00AM with the sound of two children at my bed asking me mommy are we going outside today. I thought to myself as I looked at the time are they serious. This is my Saturday and Sunday weekly. So I get out the bed head to the kitchen to see what they want for breakfast. My kids are very picky and never know what they want or either they want a grand meal as if they were at Junior's Restaraunt. So I know that I need my morning cup of coffee first. If I don't have that everyone will have a problem. I start to prepare breakfast for them, place it on the table. I have my 21 year old son lying in the bed because it's his day off and I need milk from the store and other items. So guess what I have to compromise now. I go and put myself together and decide that I should get the laundry done before the oldest goes out and run the street with his friends and not return until God knows when. I have to take advantage of every opportunity when he is in the house otherwise I stuck too do it all with a 5 and 8 yeard old and I am sure all the parents who live without the father in the household understand what I am saying. LOL. It sure is not easy. I now get the clothes ready to get out the door now 8AM. The have decide to take there money jar and put the pennies in a bin from there room and play with them. I have no idea we all know that kids are creative and they can make things up and enjoy them. So I leave them in the hallway of the aprtment to play as there oldest brother is in the home with them. To clear that up they were not left alone in the house without adult supervision. I head out the door too do the laundry which is not easy on a HOT day like today. I'm in the laundry and I of course have to call to ensure that things are well in the home. I am now finished with the laundry had to stop at the store get milk and other items and head home. I am in he door the kids are looking at me and my five year old says mommy are we going to get the helmut for the bikes at Target I look at her with sweat dripping down my face, of course she doesn't care about that she wants what she wants and that is what matters. It is now 10AM. All this is called  parenting and trying to be Diva on a day to day basis. My life in a nut shell while most people are just waking up out of bed.
