World of Motherhood

I hope all are well as this "illness" season has taken its toll on our family. I am happy to report that all are well in our house and I hope it stays that way. The weather changing is hard on us all, spring we are ready.

As mothers we don't get sick days, how nice it must be for those who say " I don't feel good I am going to lay down." When your a mom of any number of children that is not a line you get to say. No one tell you this as you embark on motherhood, or how about when they are sick and want you to hold them. But at the same time you need to do laundry, cook dinner and pick the other kids up from school. Most of us put the laundry off and order pizza, which in those moments is whats best for your child when they need you. What they don't tell you is after all that is done how tired and burnt out you are... then it must start over again tomorrow.


I love being a mom and would never trade any of those moments! Now that my kids are getting older it would have been nice to know these little secrets and to know that I am not alone in this. It sometimes seems to be taboo to say as a mom that it is hard. We moms are looked at as superwomen and miracle workers in a world that judges everything.

Let us stand together and support each other in this MOM world and know it is OK to have a day you wish would start over and that you are VERY normal for thinking that. Not to be judged!!!
