too many kids

My summer involves too many kids: daycare, babysitting Bella and Seb everyday, and occasionally Nick, Ella, Ethan, or Sarah in the evenings.

Yesterday, I hit my wall and was starting to get crabby with Bella and Sebie.
At one point I said, "I don't care about being fair, I care about keeping your socks clean!"
I was going crazy and thinking about how I never wanted my own kids.

...Then we walked over to the little pond at the park and saw a mama duck with 8 ducklings.
For at least an hour, there was no fighting or wining and both Bella and Seb just wanted to follow the ducks around the pond.
It was a perfect ending to the week.
