Sibling Rivalry

My morning has been full of 'stop hitting your sitter', 'you two need to seperate', 'Emma stop...', 'Audrey stop...', 'No', 'Stop', 'That's NOT okay', interspersed with yelling, tears, giggling and laughing - this mommy is going nuts and its only Monday morning!!

Have you ever had one of those moments, when you come across something at just the right time without even looking and you just have to sit back and say, "Okay, Thank you Lord, I see the billboard!"

This morning I saw the billboard. It had neon lights and arrows pointing to it. This morning I came across this blog Like A Warm Cup of Coffee and an excellent entry Ten Tips for Dealing with Sibling Rivalry chalked full of great wisdom.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who's dealing with sibling rivalry, if you aren't yet, I'll give you a couple weeks, now that school is out and they're spending more time together. Either way, this is a great read, so grab a cup of tea or some lemonade and give yourself 5 Mommy Minutes!

I'm so glad you found my blog (and I'm glad I found yours)! It is so difficult day in and day out to deal with whole sibling thing, but I know that if I remain consistent now there will be a payoff later...best friends? Hoping! :)

Thanks Sarah! I'm glad too, I came across it through Three Blondes and A Redhead!
