I am so glad that there is a day dedicated to Mother's. Especially this year. Everyday that I cringe at the kids perisitent whining, step on toys that really hurt or get woken up at 3:30...I can stop and realize that if it all disappeared I would cry.I love being a Mommy sooooooooooo much. It's just that lately I don't feel like I've taken enought time to enjoy it or breath in every moment. I want to have time to do that. We went to the park yesterday & it felt so good, but the only reason we did it was because my Mom was sweet enough to send over her cleaning ladies & I didn't want to be home while they were here. I was pushing Sam on the swing & realized this. I would'nt have taken the time to do it otherwise. I was so sad. I used to do that stuff all the time, but not lately. I'm doing too many other things. I have too many hats on right now to do anything 100%. I'm so sad and frustrated. I have to have more faith that it will all be Okay if I don't try to save the day! I'm glad for Mother's Day this year...to remind me to put my Mommy hat back on. This is the best job in the world. Hands down.
