Mommyhood

  • Sleep in way too long and rush my son through breakfast just to get him to school on time.
  • Try not looking like I haven't showered today and sometimes even yesterday
  • Almost forget my son has early out this week, AGAIN!
  • Try to figure out when I need to step in and play referee.
  • Listen to squeals and screams of fun and fighting....I wonder which one it is now?
  • Oh man, did I forget to eat lunch again?
  • Another diaper change!? Why won't you potty train? I know this is just to rebel against me!
  • "Put clothes on! We need to get your brother!" She just wore a diaper...at least she didn't have to get out of the car
  • I lose most of the time
  • "Time for homework" ....deep moans....and then cooperation! YAY! Victory!
  • "What are you doing up on that chair?!"
  • Don't mess with that!
  • How did you get so dirty?
  • Is that your good pair of pants with the hole in the knee?
  • Amazed and so proud at how well my son is starting to read
  • Annoyed that my girl who could care less 2 minutes earlier where I was, now thinks she needs all my attention because brother is getting help on his homework!
  • Amazed that I've survied staying at home for over 5 years now.
  • Very much love my kids but am happy that they are distracted
  • Very happy the paino has headsets, I can turn the volume way up and pretend I am alone for 2 minutes!
  • I did forget to eat lunch.

"Mom!"

You are doing a GREAT job!
You have 2 of the most beautiful kids in the world & you have a pretty FANTASTIC husband too! :-)
Thanks for taking care of them all!! I know sometimes it can be a thankless, tiring, crazy job but it's worth it in the long run!
Wish I was closer! Then I could take the kids & try to give you more breaks!!
Hang in there........thinking of you.
Love, mom t
