The Cursed Last Hour a/k/a You Will Love One Another!

Things have gone wonderful today. We played games, read books, rode bikes. All was peaceful....until that cursed last hour between 4 pm and 5 pm. It is like something goes off in my kids' heads and they go insane. The fighting is pretty violent at times, and I am tired of the time outs. So, today when they became temporarily insane, I told them I would not referee and they needed to resolve their issues. A moment ago the pair came out with tears streaming down their faces. They reached into the refrigerator and got out their ice packs and went back to their rooms.

I don't want to know.

I can't wait until Ellie's older and can defend herself. Well, at the rate she's going it shouldn't take long...maybe a couple more months.

yeah..i guess they settled it the old fashioned way, and both played together the rest of the day without any more fights...that is, of course, after their tears were dry!
