Dear Children, I’ve had a very bad attitude lately so I’m giving myself a time out at a hotel for the weekend. I hid $100 in your room for food. Clean your room and you will find it. Love, Mom. Have you ever considered writing a letter like this? I have. Mom burnout is no joke. We’ve all been there, one way or another and it’s brutal. My burnout out moment came while I was parenting a special needs child, a toddler who was the energizer bunny, and my infant daughter.

At one point in my desperation to end the sounds of tattling, screaming and attempts at revenge—I tried this idea. Let’s just say I’m lucky my kids didn’t kill each other. One of the biggest pet peeves in parenting is the constant sibling rivalry between my kiddos. They are all strong-willed and independent to the point they could be their own countries at war. And one of the keys I keep impressing into my children is their siblings will be their closest friends later on in life.

Chris and I sank deeper into our seats, holding hands and sharing headphones as our plane took off for Seattle. Eventually, a flight attendant stopped by to ask the “newlyweds” if we would like an additional set of headphones. He was surprised to find out we were celebrating 21 years of marriage with a rendezvous anniversary trip. “No wonder you two seem so in tune,” he commented. Chris and I haven’t always had a healthy marriage. There were times when our marriage suffered because of growing pains.
