Last night our family had such a family night activity. We watched the First Presidency Christmas Devotional and then decorated a Gingerbread house, so today when I woke up I was feeling like it was a good day, we just had a great night last night with the family and right first thing in the morning things were going well, I was actually feeling pretty good about my mom skills. I got one child off to school, I was taking another child to the Doctor so they will feel better, while the other child tagged along. You know it is one of those days when you think oh yea this is way I am a mom! Well towards the end of the day we needed to go do our grocery shopping so I have the Princess in the cart while the boys are walking. I got the things I needed off one isle turned to go to the other one just thinking the boys were following, so I turned around got a quick glimpse of Marcus running around the corner and then immediately Alec screaming, "Mommy"! So I ran to get him and asked what happened, when Marcus very proudly told me that Alec was walking in the wrong direction and he hurried and ran towards me to catch up towards me and to hide from Alec so he could get lost! At that moment I felt like a completely looser of a mom because me oldest is trying to figure out how to ditch his brother, were did I go wrong in the whole parenting section?!!!!

Your first mistake is thinking you did something wrong! Boys/kisd have minds of their owns no matter what we try to teach them they are still who they are. Silly kids!!!
You didn't do anything wrong; try not to be hard on yourself. It's true, kids have minds of their own. And don't forget they also have their agency.
