Breathing Exercises

Dear Caden,

I finally figured out that the breathing exercises they teach you for childbirth really isn't for that at all.  "Whoo whoo! Whee, whee! Whoo, whoo! Whee, whee!" Instead, it is for moments like right now. Moments for when your sweet angelic child has turned into this unrecognizable, red faced screaming mini maniac with snot swinging from their nose and tears streaming down their faces. All because Mommy forgot the 'nack' (snack) container. I pick you up and you instantly turn into this limp, wet noodle able to slide out of any grasp that Mommy tries. Those breathing exercises don't seem so silly now...THIS is the marathon, I see the light at the end of the tunnel and it is called bedtime.  "Whoo whoo! Whee, whee! Whoo, whoo! Whee, whee!"

Love,
Mommy
