Droll Days

I am so excited about moving. I am not scared or apprehensive so far. I am looking forward to our new adventure and it is coming along sooo well so far. With that in mind though, today and actually for the last 4 days or so I have been blah...... I am tired and can't seem to get up much enthusiasm for anything. I just want to sit and stare into space for hours on end. Having a family makes that pretty much impossible and my kids are anything but blah right now.
Deven is in a very emotional stage right now. He cries at the drop of a hat and seems to need to be the first for everything right now. The fight for control is Deven's right now.
Dylan is also going through an emotional stage but he seems to be understanding emotions more. He is picking up on mine and Tim's and Deven's moods and reacting appropriately. He will give a hug or throw out I love you's when they are needed.
Both boys are changing so much every day! One day I think I have it figured out and the next I am back at the bottom of the ladder trying to figure out how to get back to the top.
As for me, I always thought when you became an adult you were you. Nothing changed, you stopped growing and not just physically. This is not the case. As the kids grow so do I. My ideas and thoughts on life change as often as the kids grow through a growth spurt. I have more patience and tolerance for some things, and I find that in other instances I find faults where I would never have looked before. I also find that my moods mirror my kids. When they are happy I am more likely to smile, when they are grumpy, so am I. So is it me following along there path of growth or are the kids really just following my moods and reacting???
Who know, but I would sure like to kick this blah and get back into overdrive! The house would be a lot cleaner if I did! LOL
