Crappy Mom moment

I guess if I want to capture the not-so-funny moments with the kids then I should capture mine too. *sigh*
I woke up the other day with a massive headache. I mean, hurt like heck headache. And, of course, the kids chose that day to not listen to a darn thing I said, screamed at each other and yelled all morning long. I started the day talking calmly and doing the good Mother stuff. After about an hour, that went out the door. Fast forward three more hours on the way to Warren. The kids were fighting non-stop in the back over everything. EVERYTHING! They had a bottle of water and were sharing it. By sharing I mean holding on to it until the other one screams bloody murder and I yell at them, yes YELL, at them to hand it to their brother. This continued for about 10 straight minutes. I finally calmed down, told them that the next time they argued like that I was throwing the water out. Now would be a good time to write down that I have always said I make promises, not threats. If I say it, I will do it. Well, I did it. I took the water, rolled down my window and dumped it out. Both kids were in shock. Lex started screaming. Nate tried telling me they were sharing. Erik was stifling a laugh. Yes, mother of the year right there for ya.
