I had only 2 boy...I know this feeling all too well. I had only 2 boys though and not 4 which I a sure makes it so much more difficult. I have found with a loud child it is almost difficult to hear your own thoughts. There are no hard or fast rules for dealing with boys other than tons of play time. I started using an oil by doterra called serenity for the kids before bed so they now go to sleep pretty well. I can send you a little sample of it if you would like. It also works if they are crazy hyper during the day to calm them down. Another thing I need to do for my kids is to get an oil called in-tune. It is for kids with ADD or ADHD or their symptoms. Since I totally refuse to get my kids tested for it I decided that if using this helps them focus I am willing to use it. I wish I still lived there and I would take your kids for a few hours just to give you a break it really does make a big difference if you can get away for a little while from the chaos and noise of 4 boys. I find that some people don't understand hyper boys until they have at least 2 boys together and it makes a huge difference. I want to also let you know that I admired how well behaved your boys were in church when I felt like mine were being monkies. Being a Mom is so worth it and so trying all at the same time and sometimes stay at home mommies need a break to remember why we do what we do. I hope you can get a break soon. Let me know if you wanted a sample of those oils and I can send them out. I was very skeptical of them until I started using them regularly and noticed a major difference.My Growing Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00865589907808579586noreply@blogger.com
