So after reading this, I realized how I could TOTALLY relate.
In fact, just last month I was going CRAZY. Saying I needed to get out. I wanted to get a job and I wanted to feel like I was doing something to help our family. Bobby told me that I didn't need to but I was certain that I did. So I got a job interview.
And then came Boston. "Mom, Mom, Mom, Dad, Bye Bye Guys!"
And he walked away and went to play in his room.
At that point, I wanted to follow him!
I realized that if I were to work, we'd have to do day care. Or something to that affect.
I then decided that I want to be the one that teaches him.
That sees him doing his "firsts."
Being a SAHM (stay-at-home-mom) is hard work. REALLY hard work. I only get about an hour or 2 break during the day. During which time I clean up the mess that Boston has made that morning. Or I go and work out. Or some sort of craft. And then, about 5-10 minutes before nap time is over, I decide to take a nap myself. Then I pray that those 5-10 minutes are enough to make it through the rest of the day and night. It usually is! Those of you that are around Boston a lot know how extremely active, outgoing, loud, and energetic he is. He is completely Bobby's son. And I can't keep up with Bobby! So trying to keep up with Boston AND Bobby? Sometimes I find myself in Zombie mode. It usually only lasts about half an hour, then I fight through it and make it back to "AWESOME Mommy" mode! ;)
Confession #27- Some days I want to do absolutely nothing. Sit on the couch, cuddle my baby, and watch movies all day!
Confession #347- Some days I want to run away. I obviously never do. But I do daydream about laying on a beach drinking a Strawberry Daiquiri reading a fabulous book. ;)
Confession #4- One day, last week, Boston and I stayed in our pajamas all day! Then about an hour before Bobby got home, I got both of us ready, looking fabulous! Bobby never knew! ;)
Confession #2347- Sometimes while I'm working out, getting through that 4th mile, I think of the fact that when I walk into the apartment Boston is going to come running for me with a big huge smile on his face saying "Mommy, Mommy!" That gets me through.
Confession #894- No matter how stressful ONE day can be, I would never trade my life in for the entire world!! =]
p.s. stay tuned for those crafts!
p.s.s. stay tuned for Boston's hair cut story this morning. :( Saddest morning of my life!
