I've realized because we actually have a deadline to be somewhere on time.
Unconvention #1- stop reading parenting books *gasp*
Unconvention #2- spend some time with the actual rascals because really they just need a hug or something. they have been jagged around all day and just need someone to invest in them even for 5 minutes
Unconvention #3- don't walk away and leave your homemade granola to burn in the oven while you do #2
Unconvention #4- a little wine sometimes helps lifts the spirits to handle the cacaphony with a lighter touch
Unconvention #5- don't do #4 very often, especially if you have to be somewhere (like church!)
Unconvention #6- never mind this entire comment 🙂
