Valentines Day is just around the corner. While in the past, I used to dream of chocolate, roses and a nice night out with my husband, I now dream of peace and quiet from my kids. \u00a0Here’s what I REALLY want for Valentine’s Day this year from my kids:<\/p>\n

10. Wake up without crying<\/p>\n

9. Eat the food I serve them and not ask for cereal instead. Every. Single. Time<\/p>\n

8. Throw ZERO tantrums<\/p>\n

7. Don’t hit, head-but, jump on, or kick one another<\/p>\n

\"They<\/a>

They tell me they’re just “playing”<\/p><\/div>\n

6. Actually get dressed \/ put on their winter gear when asked, and not after the 100th time when I’m yelling and shoving them into their coats.<\/p>\n

\"Pants<\/a>

Pants are not optional for this winter weather<\/p><\/div>\n

5. NAP but if I’m really being honest, I mean, nap at the same time for more than 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"Please<\/a>

Please nap in your crib instead of on me…<\/p><\/div>\n

4. Clean up after themselves<\/p>\n

3. Say “please” and “thank-you” without being reminded<\/p>\n

2. Play nicely and independently for more than 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

1. Go the F$*# to sleep so mommy and daddy can enjoy some alone time (aka drink wine and binge watch Suits).<\/p>\n

\"It's<\/a>

It’s WAY past your bedtime. PLEASE go to sleep!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
