Nick and Ashton left for their first father and sons camp out. I think Ashton was pretty excited. I guess it had been raining earlier today, so I hope the weather is ok. The girls were missing the boys, too.
Cailee earned her video game rental, so we picked it up tonight. She made sure she picked out a game that the other two kids wanted to play. She always thinks about them in decisions like this. She and Brookie had fun playing, but I know they can't wait for Ashton to get back.
Did mom have a meltdown ? Hm... Slightly. Did the girls have meltdowns? Uh, yup. I let them play a little longer before bed, but mom was met with opposition. There is only so many times a person can ask nicely before they might lose their cool. Cailee works toward putting a sticker on a sort of behavior chart. She lost that privilege tonight and that made her more disruptive. Then Brookie couldn't find her Jammie shorts in her oh-so-clean room, so she lost it. Mom's fuse blew. No one was happy.
Brookie calmed down. Mom calmed down. Cailee was still upset, so I went and talked to her. I asked if she had anything to say to me. She said, "I want my daddy." Lol she is blunt. She said it wasn't because I got mad at her, but she just missed him. We both said we are going try harder tomorrow. She fell asleep very quickly. Then Brookie said she was wired. Ok. Well, you are going to go to bed anyway. She was asleep in minutes too.
Peace. And mom is going to bed early. Kind of. I hope the boys had more fun than the girls did.
