Just breathe

Baby K always falls asleep while I am on the computer. If I move he will wake up so I tend to just stay here for the short little cat nap he will take. As I sit here enjoying his sweetness my older children are running around upstairs screaming! So far they have fought very little, but my absence seems to wake something up inside of them. My first thought is to scream at them, but them I remember sweet baby K asleep on my lap. I also know screaming just leads to more screaming. So I say to myself just breathe. I calmly call them down stairs. I give them each a chance to speak. A solution is found, and they go upstairs happy and calm. Things are right again. Baby K can sleep a wee bit longer and all because I remembered to breathe.
