My life as a mom!
I'm feeling a little guilty this morning because I'm glad that I'm not going up to the school today. Most weeks I go up there two days, one for Avery's class, and one for Brady's. This week I haven't been up there at all, and it has been so nice. I love being in their classes and helping out, and they seem to love it still. I know that pretty soon they aren't going to be as excited about me hanging around, so I'm trying to enjoy it while I can! Still, it is really nice to have a week to myself. Sometimes I feel like a stay at home mom that doesn't actually get to stay at home. I know to those of you who actually go to work all day, this probably doesn't seem like much, but it's busy to me. I guess it's just whatever you get used to. Chloe is really easy going and I'm thankful that I can take her with me to the school, but it still makes it slightly more difficult. Anyway, I also have Ladies' class on Wed. that I'm committed to being there and watching the kids. Individually none of this is very much, but most weeks, I have three days committed and two to myself. Well, of course there are errands and grocery shopping that has to be done on those days. When is there time for the laundry? Okay, I think I'm done complaining. I'm sure if I walked in someone else's shoes for a day, I would be glad to come back to my life. I feel very blessed that I am at home, and it's how I've always wanted it. There are just going to be those days that I need to vent a little, and today is one of those. It doesn't help that I'm not feeling good, or that Brady is at home today. I picked him up early from school two days this week, so I finally took him to the dr. yesterday. It's just allergies, but the medicine they gave him doesn't seem to help, and the other medicine might make him sleepy, so I have to wait until the weekend to try it. So much for a week to myself!!

I feel your pain. Ugh. The time just flies by and I end up feeling like I haven't spent enough time with the kids OR on housework. I really do wonder what I do all day...it's sure not sitting around relaxing, though!!
I feel the exact same way. I am at the day school 4 days week. I am supposed to be a stay at home mom too. I feel your pain. But like you I try to count every day a blessing.
i have people to do work for me. you should look into it. i just sit and watch my stories all day & eat chocolate.
I'll definitely check into that. Sounds wonderful! :)
