i'm a poor example to my kids

Christmas is coming and I had really anticipated that this Christmas would be the Christmas my kids get it.  That I would have done a good job in explaining and living out this season and they would understand and love Christmas for more than just the presents.

I think I'm sucking.

I feel like there's a lot of bickering and whining and crabby pants going on.

With my kids, too.

The other night Josh was reading Tabitha's Travels, our advent book, and I was reading some fiction piece of chit.  It wasn't until I woke up in a panic the next morning that I realized what I'd been doing.

So I'm all panicky, sweaty.  Realizing I'm this big fat failure of an example.

When am I going to get this mothering thing right?
