See These Faces??

I think if summer keeps going the way it has, these faces may end up on a couple of milk cartons!! Yes, they seem very angelic and sweet, but that is a disguise. I guess part of my frustration with my oldest two daughters stems from them constantly bickering. They can not do a d*$n thing without arguing!! I don't know what has happened. Alexys goes above and beyond to annoy the heck out of Apryl. She sneaks into her room and takes whatever it is she wants. Then I get to hear Apryl complain for hours about it. Apryl on the other hand, can not talk to Lexy in any tone other than a snotty one! She is bossy and so rude to her sometimes. I try to encourage them in every way I can think to get along. The Morrison Challenge has brought up sooo many issues, that it is not even fun anymore. They seem to enjoy making every little thing a battle. No one ever wins, well, I do!! Actually, that isn't even true. I always feel crappy when I am not happy with them. It doesn't feel great to be upset with my children. I have little insight on sibling type stuff, as I am ten years older than my brother. So, some of these things are new to me. I feel guilty for feeling like I could give them away and be fine with it! Again, those are things I think when I am upstairs and I can hear them downstairs arguing. In the end, I know they are good kids. They will all have their moments but how long are moments supposed to last??
