There is something glorious about brushing my teeth by myself. And for awhile Elijah and I had "rest time" 5-10 minutes of sitting on the couch with books at some point during the day. It took a lot of spanking to get there but was well worth it. And my dream is to someday have a fenced yard. we'll see..Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15911955170008247010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874669932388577244.post-26945866190455995712012-12-06T08:27:04.241-08:002012-12-06T08:27:04.241-08:00Good advice, Jessica!

Try nap time for the younger ones and "quiet play time in your room" for the older ones. They need down time, too. Even if they are still playing with the fire truck you can sneak to the furthest point in the house and escape for at least a good 10 minutes before you hear the door creak open.The Dunn Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08520435951164790671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874669932388577244.post-49470146838117302682012-12-05T13:50:05.931-08:002012-12-05T13:50:05.931-08:00Thanks for the input, Meradith.

Oh, and behind a locked bathroom door - it's lame, but the little ones respect it as if nothing glorious goes on in there - little do they know that many a treat can be enjoyed in that space called a water closet. :-) I am with you...I am with you.
