My Emotional Intelligence Needs a Diaper Change

Emotional intelligence is apparently the ability to understand and control your emotions. I think my emotional intelligence has Alzheimer’s. Often I feel that the emotional intelligence of my children is farrrr more intelligent than my own. What the hell!?


At the moment I feel like a child trying to raise children into adults. Something is wrong with thIs picture. . .

My Emotional intelligence needs a diaper change and a few naps lately. I know this because I have found myself being corrected by my two young sons on how my attitude needs to change. How can I argue with them when I know deep down they are right. So I accept my 9 year old's scolding and move on to the next room to adjust my attitude alone.

Some days I feel I am super mom and my emotional intelligence is my super human power that helps me conquer Life and whatever it may bring my way . Good meals are cooked, quality time with my boys is consistent, my house is clean, I kick ass at my work, and no one can do or say anything that stops my flow.

Obviously I am not feeling so "emotionally intelligent" of late. . . But Life in all its states is still an amazing event to observe. Hopefully my emotional intelligence returns to it's cognizant state and I can put back on my 'Super Mom' cape and kick some ass. For now I will take naps and trust the intelligence of my children to keep me in line.
