That's what my in-laws did. Now they feel sorry for me. My husband even apologizes to me for never getting a break from her.
Just a bad day today. She did her best to ruin DD4's dance for the parents. She did a pretty good job, even upsetting one of the other students enough that she couldn't finish her dance.![]()
Sorry to hear she's been trying your patience so much lately. Wish I had some advice, but the only thing I can say is that it won't last forever. Any chance you have a local teen who would be willing to watch her a few hours sometimes, so you can get a break? I know there are people around here (actually Long Island, NY), who pay a teen to come in a play with/amuse the kids while the mom is actually home, just so she can get a little peace or get the cleaning/laundry done without having to worry about keeping the kids occupied. I'd never heard of it before, but a few people in work mentioned it as something maybe my DD13 could do to earn a few dollars. They call it a mother's helper. Might be worth a few dollars, just to be able to rejuvenate now and then and get a break.
BTW, good luck with the christening tomorrow. Hopefully all will go well and you will be able to enjoy it.
