I sure hope I am not the only one who feels completely BEAT by the end (I mean the middle) of the day! I try so hard to be all smiles and adventures for my kids, and little good wife to my hubby. Unfortunately... by the end (middle) of the day I turn into a ferocious BEAST! To put it nicely... My poor husband seems to get my leftovers when he gets home! Grumpy, Whiny and short with him :( Please don't comment and say that you make sure to be ready for your husband to get home so you can serve him a great meal followed by a long back massage, EVERYDAY!... because if you do, I might just never believe a word you say EVER AGAIN!!!
Hmmm, finding balance!
I DO I DO I DO want to be a good mom and wife... One that they can't help but smile when they think about!

I love the picture. It warms my heart.
What really is a good wife and mother?
It's what your family needs. Not the woman next door, not the idea painted in a magazine ... it's who you are, what you know, what you can share and.... your weaknesses. Your children need to know that no one is perfect. They need to know we are weak so they understand the ability to compensate and support. Whether they see it through Barry's example or figure it out on their own. You are a good Wife and Mother because you are an integral part of YOUR family. Most importantly: Each of us is doing the best we know how. For that, we deserve an award. You have a ton to offer and when you can't...that's okay too. If you say that you don't have anything to offer then "I might just never believe a word you say EVER AGAIN". This is just some of my immediate thoughts.
Thanks Jenn!!
Oh man, I SO understand. I'm just holding it together, doing what I can, when I can, which isn't much. You just had a BABY!!! (Not to mention the fact that you've been spending much of your time since then going back and forth to the hospital). Your husband should be back rubbing you - he has the easy job - ha ha! You are not alone!
