Whenever I felt frustrated with what the boys did or how I was unable to handle them I was told, 'it's just a phase'. It was about 12 yrs ago when I first heard this and believe me 'the phase' doesn't go away. It just transforms from one to another. And most of the time it requires me to stay a step ahead else the phase will overpower me. There are days when I succeed but as the boys are inching towards their teens, these days are few and far between. One thing though that has remained constant over the years is the love. I'm not being mushy here but when they were younger it was in the form of hugs and kisses. Now that they are older it is in the form of 'you are cranky, go and rest, I'll clear the table'. Today was I such day - and having kids is a blessing... :)
