Beleive me with a 7 year old and a 5 year old of my own and with 10 kids in the house Monday-Friday. Eventually you get to the point where you just block it all out. It's okay for that little one to cry. Nobody is hurting him and sometimes their's just nothing you can do. Go somewhere in the house where you can't here him as well. Or put him in a room with the door closed a little bit further away from you. Turn on your radio to block out the sound and go back to bed. You'll feel much better in the morning well rested and your little one will be just fine. Don't blame Mark he needs his sleep too. You have to do what Mark does and stay in bed too. Ignore it, turn on the radio. Mally will eventually cry himself back to sleep.<BR/>ValerieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13072729.post-1155557989969761962006-08-14T05:19:00.000-07:002006-08-14T05:19:00.000-07:00Wow, lots of Mark bashing.

You're such a good mom though and it shows. =) I hear your frustration though. I'm sure that Mark was equally frustrated and that maybe he just came out to tell you those things because he didn't know what to do either. I know that when Scott can't fix something it's really hard for him and he acts mad at me or wants to blame me. But the truth is he just wants to help and doesn't know how and he is mad at himself. I think Mark waking up shows that he at least cared so give him some points for that. =) But I totally understand your frustration.<BR/><BR/>Love you!!!

Then when Mark comes looking for you tell him you're OK, but as long as he's up he could check on Mally.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11566622978154285365noreply@blogger.com
