I heaved a sigh as I prepared Audrey (2yo) for bed. She looked up and said, "What happened, Mommy?"
I said, "Nothing, I'm just tired."
Her immediate reply. "Go to bed." 
Good advice, sweetheart.
I'm enjoying Audrey so much. I remember when my first two boys were little (they were 17months apart) I would get tired and frustrated at them. Now that I have 6 children I realize they're little for such a short time, to enjoy them. Things are also a little different now because when you have older children they help out a lot with the younger ones.
Don't get me wrong I still get frustrated but I've learned (am learning) to enjoy them where they are now. 

You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance. ~Franklin P. Jones

Have a wonderful Easter remembering the great price our Lord made and his resurrection.
