Ways Moms Can Find Peace In The Midst of Chaos
As I was trying to get some work done, I could hear the kids down stairs yelling, “I had the remote first, don’t change the TV, I’m telling mom!” Immediately, I hear them racing up stairs to tell their side of the story first. I took a deep breath, because I did not want to hear it, let alone, be a referee to this sibling quarrel. I explained how I’m tired of hearing them always fighting over the smallest things and how it’s getting on my nerves. I told them to figure it out and if they didn’t, the tv was going off. Remind you, there are about six TVs in the house, so why we are fighting again? This is how I will find peace in the midst of chaos in the house this year.
