It was one of those days where everything felt off. All day long I had been fighting just to finish one project (I don’t remember what it was... just that it was a normal task like sorting mail), and yet another mishap erupted with one of the kids. As I stood up (quite disgruntled) to go figure out ... Read More about I Signed Up for This
