Moody Beeyotch

Man - it's amazing how moods rub off on other people. There is no better example of this than with my kids. If Emma is cranky and crying - the entire house is on edge. We snip and snark at each other and generally make things miserable. If she's happy - it's infectious and the whole house sings with her gigles and squeals.

Same goes for all of us. Unfortunately one bad mood cancels out everyone's happy happy. The good news is - a mood never lasts for long at our house. Naps, bathtime, meals, snacks, tv, walks, songs, potty breaks, more food, crafts ---- all go a long way to changing attitudes here.
