With the third kid, we let the kid do whatever so they would beat me. Mud off the ground and bugs and everything. We're good. But it took us a lot of freaking ass kicking us in the beginning. And we lost touch with each other. And we would fight a lot. And we got so disconnected that we. I found my happiness in the kids.
