It's like a game...

Do you ever wonder if the kids sit up at night deciding who is going to be bad at what part of the day? It's like they have a plan that one minute can't go by during the day without one of them acting up or doing something to irritate adults. It's like, you'll have till lunch, I'll have till dinner and then we'll take turns till bedtime. I know they call it the terrible two's but what about the horrible threes, bossy fours, and since our oldest is only 15 days away from five I'm a little nervous to see what 5 brings. I mean no they aren't terrible every day all day, but man they know when it's the worst possible time to act up and they do. And don't forget, if mom and dad aren't looking all bets are off. Everything we've told them that isn't allowed is fair game. Because it's always the second person doing something that gets caught. I remember that from when I was young. You get hit by your sibling, you tattle, you don't hit back because it's you they'll see hitting and you'll get in trouble. I think the adventures have just begun with these three boys.
