    I am so sick of raising a 4 year old and the twins ALL ALONE!

    :hug: Do you have any family or friends who can come over and give you a hand?

    :grouphug: Is there anyone in the area that can help you? I'm with my twins all day by myself as well, but I don't have any other children. Having someone come by for even an hour helps out a lot.

    I can relate, though I only have the twins to deal with. My dh also works long hours. I have no family nearby to help and no friends available since they are all at work. With summer coming, though, I got dh to agree to letting me hire the teenager across the street for a few hours a week to help me out here and there. Maybe you can find a nice teen mother's helper, as well? I can't wait!

    I was just thinking of the teen helper. Now that school is almost over, could you find someone in your neighborhood to come over for a couple hours/week. I know when I was 13-14 if someone wanted me to come play with their babies I probably would have done it for free since I loved babies!!

    :hug: I hear you! My DH doesn't work long hours, but he likes to take off on the weekends. :gah: I'm going to go visit my parents for a few weeks. I agree w/ pp, find someone to help out. Do what it takes to stay sane!

    :hug: I'm sorry your feeling bad, it is hardwork with just the twins alone never mind an older child too. I bet your doing a brilliant job!! I hope you can manage to get some help soon x
