trying not to sell my 4yr old

My kids are supposed to be in bed, yet they were all up and playing. Nomuken started to cry, so I checked on them to find Tajia on top of her punching her. Tajia was removed from the room and placed in time out. She is now SCREAMING "mommy, stop ignoring me!.....MOMMY" over and over.
Her time out does not start until she is quiet, she knows this! Yet she will not stop, just keeps getting louder. I am tired have had a very long, stressful day and this is not what I need right now. I need a break, I want to be able to breath or pee without a kid helping, just one single time this month! But here I am home alone with 4 kids, 3 of which are supposed to be in bed. Tajia is going horse from all the screaming! Nomuken is sleeping, Gabe is playing Lego's, and Deze is reading a book.
My favorite for the moment is Nomuken! Granted that could change in two minutes!
It does not help that I am still all stuffed up from being sick.....not to mention the lovely headache! Yep that cutie in the pic causing all that hell!
On a different note Nomuken had her eye doctors apt today....nearly 3 hours long! They dilated her eyes, she didn't cry! She did really, really good, and then we picked her out a pair of kiddo glasses, they will be her in 3 to 5 days. She is not so happy about them, but she knows she needs them.
We are hoping that the glasses take care of her right eye turning in, if it does not then she will have to have surgery. She goes back in 2 months to get checked again. I am so proud of her, she was the only kid out of all the kids in the office (about 4-6) that didn't cry, and she was one of the youngest there. I did however warn her of what they were going to do (the eye drops) and told her that it would hurt for a while. It was funny because the nurse literally spelt it out to me when she said that they had to do d-r-o-p-s next and that it would h-u-r-t, she was stunned when I turned around and told Nomuken!
I simply feel that she has the right to know what is going on, and to be prepared for the pain, no way could I lie to her about that!
