How I feel today.This motherhood thing is impossible. There is no way, for me at least, to keep my house clean and organized, decorate it, print and frame family photos, cook healthy meals daily, teach my kids important life lessons, play and read with them, do homework, take them to parks & museums & farms & planetariums, schedule play dates, shop for necessities like play clothes and toothpaste, buy them shoes, do their hair, the laundry, plan and practice frequent holidays and traditions, go on dates with my hubby, schedule doctor and dentist appointments, be a class mom at least once a week, sign kids up for activities to develop their talents, REMEMBER stuff like donut day with your kindergartner, teach the kids to do chores, do my own chores. All this AND take care of myself: read, write, take a photography class, exercise, get school applications ready, think, blog, correspondence via FB, be a good friend to friends, send birthday cards and thoughtful gifts, and try to make myself look and feel good.
I'm so sure. AND I have an overly helpful, kind & loving, self-sacrificing, accepting, non-judgmental hubby who would do ANYTHING for me and does half, if not more than, his share of the cooking and cleaning, playing with kids, and everything else.
Ahhhh. OVERWHELMING.
At least there are days like THIS in between!
