Ready for February
January was a hard month for me. Naomi wasn't sleeping, Mia was feeling very threatened by her sister, and my husband was busy with school.
I felt like I was failing at my job.
Almost trapped with nowhere to go. Actually, overwhelmed but mostly guilty for feeling that way.
I am so ready for Joe to be done with school. Having an unavailable husband is hard.
But, the end is near. The babysitter is booked for his graduation!
I am so ready to be a 'normal' family again.
I really do love staying home. I have AMAZING friends and get to show my girls so many exciting things.
I just had a bad month, but I'm ready for February.
A new month, a new attitude.
Being a mom is hard,
but also joyful.
It really is an honor to shape their minds,
show them the world,
and teach them to love.
Thanks for reading.
I just don't want you to think I have it all together and every day is perfect.
Because, I don't.
But, I do LOVE these two more than I can describe and am SO thankful to have a husband that works so hard for our family.
Even though some months are hard, I know that I am truly blessed.
Gorgeous photos of your girls, and so glad for you that a new month is just around the corner. Love you!
ReplyDeleteOh girl - call me sometime when you're losing it! We can lose it together. It IS tough. I just quit my job this past month too. I was so overwhelmed keeping up with that(even from home), our photography is so busy and then wanting to give the best of me to my family - and all I had was exhausted leftovers. Although, I don't have two - I know that some days we feel like total failures - so tired and yet we know we are so blessed. I love your honesty - and just know you are NOT alone. I think motherhood is an emotional rollercoaster - some days minute by minute! :) Your little girls are so beautiful though and I love seeing these pics from afar!
ReplyDeleteI can relate to this post 100%.
