Stressed Out But Loving It


Ok so I so do not understand how women do it. By it.... I mean run the kids, pay the bills, shopping, church calling's, laundry and not to mention keeping the house clean!!!!! I am so exhausted by the end of the day I just want to crawl into bed.

Thinking back I remember thinking that Wal-Mart was the high light of my life and I couldn't wait for pay day just so I would have something to do. Now I think oh I wish I could be board for a day. Three kids are alot of work. Don't get me wrong I love them to death and would not trade them for anything and I would do it all over again. I am trying to enjoy each and every busy day because I know that they won't last and I will be all old and wishing for those busy days. I will be wishing for the noise and the uncontrollable laughter when they are supposed to be going to sleep. Wishing for that "mom i'm hungry" right when they are crawling into bed after their teeth have been brushed. Hearing the "oh mom I forgot that I still have some homework" right when I think that I can relax.

I am truly grateful for my kids, Taylor is so sweet and mature. She is the best big sister that I know. She will play with the boys and also take care of them. She is nice to everyone mostly because she is so shy. Haegen is so sweet and very spiritual. He is always up to helping who ever he can. He will surprise me with cleaning his room, or doing anything like that. The other day my car was full of items from the case lot sale at Smith's and he brought every one in for me. Don't ask me how he did it he is super tough. Bryce always keeps me laughing. He is so funny and you can tell he is the baby of the family. He knows how to get the other two, to do his work for him. He always tell's me "mommy you my baby". Or he will come running in from outside see me and yell hi baby and keep doing what he was doing. I guess it's from all the times I said "Bryce you are my little baby."
So all in all I have the best kid's in the whole world. I know all you mom's out there will beg to differ..... But, I know I love my kids.

I hear you. Yesterday I felt like I had someone in my face at ALL times. I was just wanting some space and to be LEFT ALONE. Then when they were all snug in bed, I wanted to wake them up and cuddle and talk again....It is never balanced out. I just need to be more grateful for every day. Great post!
