Being Mom

Being a mom is one of the most multi tasking jobs out there.  I love that video on the internet where the guy interviews people for the job of being a mom and most of people getting interviewed feel it is unfair to have a job where you have no breaks at all and may have to work all night long.  Once the guy interviewing them tells them this is the job of being a mom, most of the people get super emotional and start saying how thankful they are for their own mother.

Sometimes it can be heartbreaking too. My four year old looked at me the other night and said “I don’t love you.”  Wow, major stab to the heart.  I told her it really hurt my feelings and she needed to say sorry.  She did apologize but my mood dropped majorly after that.

I am a stay at home mom and a lot of my daily schedule has been planned around their activities, play dates, school, doctor and dental appointments, etc. for many years.   I think I have learned finally after all these years, it is okay to show your kids you need a little time for yourself to spend time with friends, get a pedicure, do something you love to do that you had forgotten about.  It shows them you love yourself too and I actually think it makes you a better parent in the long run.  So one of my 2017 resolutions is to do more self care, which in turn teaches my kids to do the same for themselves.
