Introduction to my blog

This is the first blog that I have ever done. I just recently got a budgie/parakeet, and I am doing a training journal. My bird is not frustrating or stressful at all to me, but writing that journal was kind of a stress reliever. So here I am with my first blog. I do not mind if people do not read this, as this is just a nice way for me to vent and let out all of my frustrations, problems, joys, and events from my day.

I am a stay at home mom of a two year old little girl, she will be three in November of 2010. I have been with her since the day she was born. She is my only baby, and because of this I have made the rookie mistake of spoiling her beyond belief, and it is biting me in the butt. I am not one of those mom's who have a ton of money so I run all about and just do whatever, whenever, I am the one who is all about their child and will sacrifice anything I have to, in order to give her anything she wants or needs. So to do that we needed more income than the money my boyfriend, the father of my daughter, was bringing in. When Alyssa, my daughter, was about 6 months old I started watching two little girls. Their Mother worked with my brother at a local prison in town, and he told her that I was just sitting at home everyday to give me a call and see if I was interested, being as one of her children just had a bad accident in the daycare she was in.

These kids, I should have known that they were going to be TROUBLE. The first time they came to my house, they nearly knocked down my T.V, and that was WITH their mother there. Since then they have done so many unthinkable things, it is ridiculous. I am not going to name any of them because even a small list will be too long. I know I know, you are saying so why not just stop watching them? Well in the beginning I just said it was because they were new here they are trying to test their limits, by the time I realized that, NOPE, this is just them it was too late, we needed the income to be able to pay our bills and make ends meet.

So here I am two years later still watching these two little girls, (I am about to lose one of them due to Kindergarten, and the other one half of the time due to head start.) my two year old daughter, who has picked up some VERY naughty habits from these two, and another little boy who is 9 months old(with the occasional watch of one or two of his sisters).
