quick question?

What to do about neighbors that complain about a 21-month old?

 I mean, seriously; what do you want me to do, take out the batteries? It's not that simple lady. There are obviously better days and worse days, days where I wish I COULD take out some batteries, if only just for an hour so that I can iron, or fold laundry, or just have some peace and quiet. Although, let's be honest, peace and quiet was over the moment Amelie was born, almost 5 years ago.

And then there are moments like this...

Moments of pure happiness and joy, where I can't imagine wanting even 5 minutes to myself.
