I love this family ! Adam, you have VERY big balls for bringing home a dog ! You set yourself up for Danielle being more upset with you ! I have to say that Im proud of Adam getting the job based out of Dallas. What a financial relief that must be ! I’m sorry that Danielle came down so hard on you about accepting it. After Beaux and the new job I hope that you remember next time to check with her first.🤦‍♀️ Danielle , you are coming across as being too bossy . You are very ( understandably) tired, frustrated and overwhelmed ! As a grandma , here’s my advice to you : hang with your kids until they are in full time school ( not that long from now) , really . I was one of the unusual parents that got to stay home . Went to work part time when my daughter went to kindergarten . As I look back , I am forever thankful !!! Working would only add to your stress . The girls would suffer from your anxiousness. You can’t do it all ! Both of you love those girls more than anything there is no doubt about that !!!!! My solution would be to hire a morning person - thinking you can afford one now- to help getting ALL the girls ready for wherever they’re going . Also,maybe hiring a dinnertime / bedtime person as well. The more calmness you have in the house will in turn calm the girls down. Easing everyone’s stress . Maybe through your church group you could find help there ? Danielle , since the girls are so close to going to full time school , use any time you can find to start a game plan for yourself. Think about what you’d really love to do outside of the house . With all the kids you have a lot to consider. Maybe the planning stages would help you to focus on yourself a bit. You’re both doing a terrific job ! Don’t beat yourselves up about spreading yourselves to thin . The girls know that you love them. None of them are being shortchanged !!!!! Just keep doing what you’re doing ❤️❤️ You WILL survive ,promise 😘 Best wishes from another fan 👍👍
