Anne, it's either brave or crazy. 🙂 It all worked out in the end, but definitely was a bit of a challenge to say the least.

As I was reading, all I could think of is how incredibly BRAVE you were to take 3 little ones to a school assembly… YIKES! You go mom!!!

Oh, Nina, that is so incredibly true! Remembering the "good moments" help so much in getting through the not so good ones. Thank you for sharing that!

Oy, I've had those days too, Jaimi. I have a mini-version of that at the end of the day when I'm alone with all three kids lol. And just a few weeks ago at back to school night, I wondered why my 4-year-old STILL can't sit and listen to the teacher (never mind that that was a rare occurrence—he's usually very good).

I think it's so important to remember their good moments. Just tonight, all three kids were eating their dinners so well—no complaints, finished it all, it was great. I told my husband, "We have to remember this moment so that when they complain about food in the future, we know it's not always like that."

Thank you, Caroline! Many moms have those moments of doubt no matter how many kiddos we have. 😉

Thank you for the perspective check! We, Moms, all have those moments — and sometimes it's not our calm voices that come out. Hang in there and thanks for the post.

I only have one little guy, but I do sometimes if I'm doing it right. This is an awesome article to remind you what it's really all about! Thanks
